Fruit Crisp is never about a recipe for me. If I find I have some fruit that’s gotten a little too soft and wrinkly for my taste – it’s time for some baked fruit – with whatever toppings I’ve got in the pantry. Lucky for you (and luckier for me!!) I had tons of halva leftover from a gig and I wanted to use it up. Add some hawaij for coffee – a delicious chai-like Yemenite blend, and it just takes it over the top!
You can get my TK Hawaij for Coffee on Amazon! DO NOT use Hawaij for soup!!
