Apple Crisp
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably noticed it’s apple season. What better way to enjoy a cool autumn day than with a warm, spicy apple crisp?
I’ve had this recipe on hand for many years. It was given to me by a wonderful woman I worked with long ago. I love it because it’s so easy to put together. I like to make this with McIntosh apples since you don’t have to worry about a soggy crust, but any tart apple will do. The original recipe didn’t call for nuts, so feel free to omit them if you’re not a fan. I like the extra crunch.
Ingredients:
4 cups tart apples, peeled and sliced (about 4 medium)
2/3 to 3/4 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oats
1/3 cup chopped pecans (optional)
3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1/3 cup butter, softened
Directions:
Heat oven to 375ºF. Arrange apples in greased square pan, 8x8x2 inches. Mix remaining ingredients; sprinkle over apples.
Bake until topping is golden brown and apples are tender, about 30 minutes. Serve warm and, if desired, with whipped cream or ice cream.
Serves 6.
