Apple Crisp – this is hands down the best apple crisp recipe
you’ll try! This is my go-to and a reader favorite recipe. It’s just
perfect homestyle comfort food that’s good for the soul on a cold fall
day. And of course, people of all ages love it.
Ingredients
- 2 cups oats (I like old fashioned, but quick will work as well)
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1 Tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup soft butter
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts
- 14 apples, peeled and sliced (11 cups)
- 1/4 cup sugar plus 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 9×13″ pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
- Combine
oats, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and butter in a mixing bowl. Mix
with a pastry blender or fork till crumbly. Add chopped nuts if desired. - Press
about a third of the mixture in the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread
apples over crust and sprinkle with the 1/4 cup cinnamon sugar mixture. - Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture evenly over the top of the apples. Bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or till apples are tender.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
-Tart apples like Granny Smiths work best for this recipe. Johnathon and Braeburn apples also work well.
