How to Make Apple Crisp

Description:

***Please note that this apple crisp recipe actually calls for 1 CUP and NOT 1/4 cup of oats! I don't know where my mind was in that moment but please use 1 cup of oats (though if you don't like oats you can get away with 1/4 cup) **** A great easy apple crisp recipe that's bound to be a favorite for seasons to come! ↓↓↓↓↓↓ CLICK FOR RECIPE ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ Full printable recipe (with metric/weight measurements): Ingredients 2 lbs apples cored, peeled and sliced no thicker than 1/4” (905g) 1/4 cup light brown sugar 50g 1 Tablespoon lemon juice 1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt Crisp 9 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 95g 1 cup old fashioned oats 100g 1/2 cup light brown sugar tightly packed 100g 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Instructions 00:00 Introduction 00:11 Preheat oven to 375F (190C) and lightly grease a 9x9 or 11x7 glass baking dish with butter. Set aside. Combine sliced apples, brown sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Give everything a good stir until all ingredients are combined and set aside while you prepare your crisp topping. Crisp 01:07 Prepare your topping by whisking together butter and vanilla extract. Set aside (you don't want the butter to be too hot when you add your sugar, so let it cool while you prepare your dry ingredients) 01:29 In a separate bowl, stir together flour, oats, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. 02:05 Pour butter into flour mixture and use a fork to stir until mixture is combined and clumpy (don't over-stir, you want it to be crumbly, not paste-like). Set aside. Assembly 02:25 Give your apple mixture another good stir and pour evenly into your prepared pan. 02:56 Use your hands to drop your crumble mixture evenly overtop your apple filling. 03:16 Transfer to 375F (190C) oven and bake for 50 minutes or until topping is lightly golden brown and apples are tender when pierced with a fork. If topping is starting to become too dark and apples are still crisp, cover apple crisp with foil while continuing to bake. Serve warm (preferably topped with ice cream!) CAN I MAKE APPLE CRISP IN ADVANCE? Yes, you can bake your apple crisp and store it as indicated above. Alternatively you can prepare the apple portion and place in your prepared pan as instructed. Rather than baking, cover and refrigerate. Prepare the crumble topping also as instructed (without baking) and store that in a separate airtight container and refrigerate as well. When you are ready to bake, uncover your apples and sprinkle with the prepared topping (it might be a little firm, just break it up with a fork) and bake according to recipe instructions. HOW TO FREEZE APPLE CRISP Prepare the apple crisp as instructed and assemble in a baking pan (I like to use disposable foil pans when freezing my apple crisp). Cover well and transfer to the refrigerator. Freeze up to 3 months. When ready to bake, transfer your apple crisp to the refrigerator and thaw for several hours or overnight and then bake in 350F oven as indicated in recipe instructions. If you want to freeze an apple crisp that’s already been baked, then first allow it to cool completely to room temperature, then cover tightly with plastic wrap and foil and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw apple crisp in the refrigerator and then bake in 350F oven until warmed through (about 20 minutes). Facebook: Instagram: Pinterest: Email List:
