The Best Apple Crisp Recipe
A comforting, rustic dessert featuring fresh apples topped with a buttery, cinnamon-spiced oat crumble. Perfectly easy and satisfying.
Ingredients
Filling
- 5 cups fresh apples sliced evenly
- 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup old fashioned oats
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to the required temperature and prep your baking dish.
- Slice the apples into uniform pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Toss the apples with the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until evenly coated.
- Transfer the apple mixture into your baking dish and spread into an even layer.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir to form a crumbly mixture.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
- Allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Let the dessert rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the juices to thicken. Store on the counter for up to 3 days; do not refrigerate to maintain the crunchy topping.
