What You Need

• 1 cup 1 cup brown sugar – Light or dark brown sugar works well.
• 1 cup 1 cup all-purpose flour (120 g) – For a gluten-free option, use almond flour.
• 1 cup 1 cup rolled oats – Quick oats can be used if you prefer a finer texture.

Time to Cook

Prep: 15 minutes | Cook: 45 minutes | Total: 1 hour | Difficulty: Easy | Make-Ahead: You can prepare the topping ahead and store it in the fridge.

Steps to Make It

1. Preheat your oven to 350 °F. This will get your kitchen warm and cozy, setting the stage for a delicious dessert.
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with half of the brown sugar and cinnamon. Toss them gently until the apples are coated and fragrant.
3. Transfer the apple mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Spread them out evenly so every bite has that sweet goodness.
4. In another bowl, mix the flour, oats, remaining brown sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture is crumbly and resembles wet sand.
5. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples. The topping should look golden and inviting, ready to bake.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the apples are bubbly and the topping is lightly golden. The aroma will fill your home, making it hard to wait!
7. Let the crisp cool for a few minutes before serving. This way, the juices will settle, and it will be easier to scoop.

Make It Perfect

• Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast.
• Add chopped nuts to the topping for extra crunch.
• If you want a sweeter crisp, feel free to add more sugar to the apple mixture.

Mix It Up

• Try adding dried cranberries or raisins for a chewy texture.
• Mix in some chopped pecans or walnuts for added flavor.
• For a twist, use pears or peaches along with the apples.

Perfect Partners
