APPLE, PEAR AND CRANBERRY CRISP WITH TOFFEE PECANS AND CINNAMON ICE CREAM
Steps:
- For the crisp topping: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated and brown sugars, oats, pecans and salt. Add the cubed cold butter and mix until crumbly.
- Chill until ready to use. Store leftover topping in the freezer.
- For the crisp filling: Peel the apples and pears, then dice into large pieces and put in a bowl. Toss in the orange and lemon zest and juice, granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, cinnamon and ginger. Add the cranberry sauce and toss until thoroughly combined
- For the toffee pecans: Combine the pecans, granulated sugar, butter and salt in a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until caramelized and golden, 5 to 10 minutes. Spread on a half-sheet pan and leave until cooled.
- For the cinnamon creme anglaise: Heat the cream, milk, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon and cinnamon sticks in a saucepan until it boils. Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to steep for about 20 minutes. Remove and discard the cinnamon sticks.
- Reheat the cream mixture. Whisk together the egg yolks. Then slowly whisk the cream mixture into the egg yolks by the ladleful. Return the mixture to the pot and heat over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Strain the mixture and divide among six 2- to 4-ounce small ramekins.
- To assemble the crisp: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Grease six 6-ounce brulee dishes with butter. Spoon the crisp filling into the dishes and divide the crisp topping evenly to top them. Bake until the tops are golden and the edges are bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the depth of the dishes.
- Let cool until just warm, 20 to 30 minutes. Top with the toffee pecans and serve with the cinnamon creme anglaise.

Steps:
- For the cake: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a loaf pan with butter and dust with flour; set aside.
- Combine the dates, baking soda and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and set aside.
- Place the salt and flour in a medium bowl and whisk to combine; set aside. Combine the butter and brown sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until light and airy, about 5 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla extract; then beat in the eggs, one at a time, just until incorporated. Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir in the date mixture until well combined. Add the flour mixture and the cranberries, and stir just until incorporated (don't overmix). Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Arrange the reserved cranberries, evenly spaced, on top.
- Bake on the center rack of the oven until the center of the cake is set and a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the toffee sauce.
- For the toffee sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When it foams, add the brown sugar and vanilla extract; stir once. Heat until the mixture is bubbling and has turned the color of maple syrup, about 5 minutes. While stirring, carefully add the cream in a slow stream. Cook until the sauce bubbles up and increases in volume, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- When the cake is finished cooking, remove the pan from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool. Once the cake is cool, run a knife around the perimeter of the cake and invert the pan to unmold the cake.
- Place the cake upright on a serving plate. Serve at room temperature or slightly warmed, covered in warm toffee sauce.
TOFFEE CRANBERRY COOKIES
If you like chewy cookies, then you are going to enjoy these! My husband doesn't generally eat sweets, but he loves these cookies. The recipe was given to me by a co-worker, who photocopied it from a church cookbook, so I don't know who the original credit goes to. I have modified it slightly from the original so this recipe shows a bit less sugar than the original...but I don't think you'll notice. I hope you enjoy!

APPLE-CRANBERRY CRISP WITH WARM TOFFEE SAUCE
Toffee sauce adds richness to this tart autumn-fruit crisp. While nicely gooey, the slightly bitter undertone of "burnt sugar" makes the toffee sauce subtly but not overly sweet. Blatantly stolen from Marilyn Bentz Crowley, with thanks!

Steps:
- For toffee sauce: Measure water into a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan.
- Add sugar and butter; do not stir!
- Measure out whipping cream, set near the stove along with vanilla.
- Place saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil without stirring. Let bubble briskly for 5 to 7 minutes or until the sugar begins to change colour. Swirl pan gently on the unit until the colour becomes deeply golden.
- Avert your face (as hot steam rapidly rises) and near the side of the pan, pour in whipping cream. Stir with a wooden spoon until smooth.
- Remove pan from heat; stir in vanilla. Cool until lukewarm before pouring into a container; sauce thickens as it cools. (Once cooled, sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to a week.)
- Warm sauce in a small saucepan or briefly in the microwave before serving.
- For crisp, evenly spread fruit in a 9 x 13-inch (3-L) baking dish or pan.
- Stir brown sugar with flour and cinnamon; mix in oats. Pour in butter; stir until crumbs form and topping is evenly moistened.
- Spread over fruit and bake in preheated 350ºF (180ºC) oven 40 minutes, or until fruit is soft when tested with a skewer. Crisp is delicious warm or at room temperature.
- To serve, pour about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of toffee syrup onto each serving plate, cover with a portion of the crisp and drizzle a bit more sauce over top.
