"quick" papple crisp

Ok, husband named this recipe "Papple" Crisp because saying pear apple crisp was too long and not nearly enough fun. I made this for dessert tonight. Husband gave the kids giant helpings with an enormous amount of whip cream (which is exactly the way to enjoy a fabulous crisp) but the boy's smaller tummies were full after eating only the whipped cream and never made it to the amazing papple crisp portion of the dish. However, my tummy is not nearly as small and I devoured both portions. And it was divine.

Papple Crisp 
-A combination of 6 apples/pears ( I used 2 apples and 4 pears)
-6 tbs butter (margarine will do. Husband does not know what butter is so he bought margarine when he was sent on an emergency butter run *hangs head in shame*)
-2/3 cup brown sugar
-1/3 white sugar
-a pinch, sprinkle, or good shake of cinnamon and nutmeg
-dash to a splash of vanilla
-2-3 handfuls of oatmeal

Peel and slice up your papples and place in crock pot. Cream butter (or margarine *sigh*) with the sugars. Add your spices and vanilla. Mix in oats. Dump in the crock pot. Stir to combine. Cook on low for 4 hours. Enjoy with a massive amount of whipped cream.
You can kinda see the papple under my mountain of whipped cream...

   This made a lot but left overs make a great breakfast to sneak when the kids aren't looking.
