There is something truly special about the smell of cinnamon and baked apples filling your kitchen. This apple crisp is a family favorite because it is simple to put together and tastes amazing with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

My secret for the best texture is to slice the apples into uniform pieces so they cook evenly. This keeps them soft and sweet while the topping stays nice and crunchy in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed

6Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a baking dish.

  2. 2

    Toss the sliced apples with the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a large bowl, then spread them evenly into the prepared baking dish.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, mix the flour, oats, and brown sugar together.

  4. 4

    Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the cold butter into the flour mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples.

  6. 6

    Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.

Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, pop a portion in the oven or microwave until warm, and serve with a fresh scoop of ice cream or a splash of heavy cream.
