Apple Crisp Recipe


Apple Crisp Recipe
This is a favorite recipe from my mom... it makes the whole house smell like apples and cinnamon, so it's a yummy warm treat on chilly fall/winter days! It's even more perfect with a scoop of vanilla or cinnamon ice cream on the side!

Ingredients
  • For fruit layer:
  • 10 good-sized apples (may only need 7-8 apples if they're larger, or may need a couple more if small) - also, I like Cortland apples the best!
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1 cup sugar (or Splenda)
  • *optional: cinnamon
  • For topping:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 sticks butter (best with real butter, not margarine) - melted
  • cinnamon

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Lightly grease (or spray) a 9" x 13" cake dish.
  3. Peel and slice apples into bite-size pieces - the more thinly sliced they are, the quicker it will bake.
  4. Spread apples evenly in cake dish.
  5. Sprinkle water over apples.
  6. Sprinkle sugar over apples.
  7. If desired, sprinkle a little cinnamon on apple layer also.
  8. In a large bowl, mix topping ingredients: flour, brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon. Mixture will be a bit chunky.
  9. Sprinkle topping mixture evenly over apple layer.
  10. Cover with foil and bake 45 min. to 1hr - check at 45 min. - you want the apples to be really soft, but don't bake too long or the topping will get too hard.
  11. Let cool and enjoy! :)

I could do this! Everyone will love it.
Saved for tomorrow. Thanx!


This sounds fantastic. I've got it bookmarked and will surely try it out. With the weather getting colder this is a perfect time of year for this. Thanks for the recipe!

I have another question that I forgot to ask. Do you think I could actually get away with Granny Smith? I realize they are used for pie making however they are a favorite. My other question is, what about the apples from a harvest being used? Sorry to ask so many questions. *grin* Thanks!
