___ and pears (stairs) (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

apples

(Other definitions for apples that I've seen before include "Eg, russets, pippins" , "Stairs (Cockney rhyming slang)" , "Russets, pippins etc" , ""____, cherries, hops and women"" , "What you make cider from" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
