HOW TO MAKE THE BEST APPLE CRISP RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, toss the sliced apples with the sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoon flour, salt cinnamon, and nutmeg, and set aside for the sugar to soften the apples and macerate, creating a light syrup. In a smaller mixing bowl, toss the oats, 1 1/2 cups flour, brown sugar, and baking powder together, then use your fingers to mix in the melted butter, gently making small clumps where you can.
• Layer the sugared apples and their juice in a 9 X 13 baking dish and sprinkle evenly with the oatmeal mixture, but don't pack it tightly. Bake uncovered for 50-60 minutes until the apples are soft and tender and the sauce has thickened and is bubbly. If the crisp seems to be browning too much, cover with foil for the remaining cooking time.
• Let the apple crisp cool for 20-30 minutes before serving for the caramel sauce to thicken. Divide in bowls and top with vanilla ice cream or whip cream, and serve.

APPLE CRISP WITH STREUSEL TOPPING

Steps:

• Make the streusel topping and chill, core and slice the apples. In large pot, melt the butter and stir in the sugar and spices. Add all fruit and cook until soft. Stir in flour and vanilla, then cook until thick and pour into 4 (8 by 10-inch) baking dishes. Top with streusel and bake at 350 degrees F until crispy and fruit is bubbling (approx. 40 minutes). Serve warm.
• Mix butter, sugar, and flour together, until crumbly and mealy looking. Add cinnamon, salt, and pecan pieces. Do not over mix. Store in refrigerator. Streusel topping may be doubled for a thicker coating.

THE BEST APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• For the filling: Whisk together the brown sugar, flour, apple cider, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl. Peel and core the apples and cut into chunks. Add the apples to the brown sugar mixture and toss to combine.
• Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
• For the topping: Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter cubes and use your fingers to completely work the butter into the flour mixture. The mixture should hold its shape when squeezed.
• Sprinkle the crumble topping over the filling, squeezing some of the mixture into small clumps. Bake until the filling is bubbly, the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown, about 1 hour.
• Let sit for at least 45 minutes and serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Butter a deep 2-quart baking dish. Place the apples in the baking dish. They should be at least 2 1/2-inches deep; add more if necessary. In a bowl, stir together the flour, sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg. Using a pastry blender or the paddle attachment of a mixer, cut in the butter to make a crumbly, sandy mixture. Sprinkle the topping over the apples. Bake for 30 minutes, until apples are tender and the topping is browned. Serve warm with heavy cream or ice cream.
