Time to Cook

Prep: 15 minutes | Cook: 40 minutes | Total: 55 minutes | Difficulty: Easy | Make-Ahead: You can prepare the topping a day in advance.

Steps to Make It

1. Preheat your oven to 350 °F. This ensures your Apple Crisp bakes evenly and gets that lovely golden color.
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are well coated and set aside to let the flavors mingle.
3. In another bowl, mix together the rolled oats, flour, melted butter, and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, which will give your crisp that delightful crunch.
4. Spread the apple mixture evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Make sure the apples are layered nicely so they cook evenly.
5. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the apples, covering them completely. This layer will become beautifully crispy while baking.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes, or until the apples are bubbly and the topping is lightly golden. You’ll know it’s done when you can smell the sweet aroma wafting through your kitchen.
7. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This helps the juices settle and makes for easier scooping.
8. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat. Trust me, it’s the perfect finishing touch!

Make It Perfect

• For a fun twist, add some chopped nuts to the topping for extra crunch.
• If you like it sweeter, adjust the sugar based on your apple variety.
• Serve it fresh out of the oven for the best experience.

Mix It Up

• Try adding berries or pears for a mixed fruit crisp.
• For a spiced version, add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the apple mixture.

Perfect Partners
