Our favorite apple crisp
You can also cut recipe in half and use an 8 x 8, or smaller baking dish
Or use ramekins for individual servings.
I like to pre-make the strudel topping ahead and freeze to have on hand to quickly make.
6 c. (about 10 medium) sliced apples (macs, cortland’s)
2 Tbls. butter
1/2 c. white sugar
1 Tbls. all-purpose unbleached white flour
cinnamon to taste
3/4 c. oatmeal
1/2 t. baking soda
3/4 c. all-purpose unbleached white flour
1/2 t. baking powder
3/4 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. butter (cold and cut into chunks)
Mix apples, butter, white sugar, flour and cinnamon together and place in a greased 9 x 13-inch pan (or see FYI below).
Topping: Combine topping ingredients and mix in butter with a pastry blender or fork.
*I like to do in my food processor. Add all topping ingredients, except for the oatmeal. Pulse until crumbly. Transfer to a medium-large bowl and work in the oatmeal.
Sprinkle topping mixture on top of apples.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.
FYI: You can also make mini apple crisp for individual servings. Use small ramekins and grease before filling. Adjust ingredients accordingly. Bake about 25 minutes or until topping is browned.
