Let me tell you from personal experience,
THIS APPLE CRISP IS AWESOME!!!
This apple recipe is so quick to throw together with no fuss. You could make it a day ahead, but you would have to hide it from your family.
Do not leave this dessert unsupervised before serving, the crunchy topping will start to disappear. If you see holes in the corners of the dessert, check the corners of your husband's lips. OH! And be sure to have vanilla ice cream on hand, it tastes great melting next to this warm dessert.
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED
- 6 large apples, peeled, cored, sliced 1/2 inch wedges
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1 cup oats
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Heat oven to 375ºF. Arrange apples in greased 13x9x2 dish. Mix remaining ingredients; sprinkle over apples. Bake until apples are tender, about 30 minutes. It's that simple!
For outstanding flavor, make sure your ground spices are fresh. If you cannot remember how long it's been since you bought a spice, chances are, it's time to buy a new jar.
ONE FINAL NOTE
This crisp is a wonderful treat with a good cup of coffee, in the afternoon while the kids are napping.
NEXT TIME I BAKE THIS
This apple crisp is already awesome. However, next time I'll try toasting the oats, along with chopped pecans, in the oven and mix them into the topping.
Hey, Jill! Your Apple Crisp looks wonderful. It’s a quintessential comfort food, isn’t it? Speaking of which, you have a lot of that happening here in your cyber kitchen. So much great stuff! Love your enthusiasm,too!
I have a bounty of apples and am being plagued to make apple dumplings. And I will…soon.
What type of apples do you use and like for this? I am thinking somrthing a little less sweet like Granny Smith… what are your thoughts?

I’ve never had Apple dumplings, do you have that recipe already posted at http://gourmetago-go.blogspot.com ?
I’m looking forward to trying your Three Onion French Soup with Gruyere…yummm
Hi Tim!
I used Fuji apples for this recipe, usually I buy Granny Smith. Except, I had DARK brown sugar on hand and wasn’t sure if Granny Smith would work.
And YES! I would love your recipes. Email them to me! I’ll try them, photograph the dish and post it. You can tell if I got it right.
It’s this picture that gets me – the close up, the darkness overall with the light right over the food…beautiful

I just came to my mom’s, felt like making apple crisp, looked for the first simple recipe I could find for it on the computer, and am now waiting for it to come out of the oven-is smelling ultra-dee-lish, can’t wait to pig out-and glad I found your recipe-Thanks!
