The beginning of Fall is the perfect time to bake apple crisp. I have an abundance of apples at my house because my mother-in-law has a small apple tree, and this year it has produced hundreds of apples. We have picked the apples over the last three weeks. So I have been making many recipes that include apples, which I will be featuring over the next week. When I am buried in hundreds of apples, the first recipe I make is apple crisp. It is easy to make and it is so sweet, warm, fruity and delicious. It has a wonderful oat topping that you can’t resist. It is perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. So let’s start slicing apples and make this wonderful crisp.
Start by peeling 1 quart of apples.
Slice the apples and place them in the bottom of an 8″x8″ baking dish.
In a bowl mix the spices. Add the 1 cup of brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 6 Tablespoons of flour.
Add the 3/4 cup of oatmeal to the spices.
Cut in 1/2 cup of softened butter.
Sprinkle topping over the apples.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.
