Apple Crisp Recipe (with Crunchy Oat Topping)
Apple crisp is a cozy and comforting dessert made with tender, cinnamon-spiced apples topped with a golden, buttery oat crumble that bakes to crisp perfection.
Ingredients
Homemade Apple Crisp Ingredients
- 6 extra-large Jona Gold apples (I like Granny Smith, Jona Gold or Honey Crisp)
- ¾ cup all-purpose organic flour
- 4 oz. cold unsalted butter
- ¼ tsp. sea salt
- 1 ½ cups old fashioned oats
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp. ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Start by preheating the oven to 350℉.
- Next, sift the flour into a medium bowl. Cut butter into small strips, add salt and mash together with a butter masher until it has a crumbly consistency. This will help get the best crumb.
- Next, add brown sugar and oats. Stir them in with a spoon. Finally, add ground cinnamon and mix everything together with a spoon once more. Set it aside until ready to use.
- Time to prep the apples! Rinse, peel, and slice apples. I cut these slices in half once more, with a knife.
- Lay out all the apple slices into an oven-safe baking dish or pan however you prefer.
- Sprinkle prepped oats mixture over sliced apples. Dig down into the fruit with a spoon handle to better cover the apples.
- Bake uncovered at 350℉ for 45 minutes, or until the fruit slightly bubbles and your Apple Crisp has turned golden brown.
- The more apples you use the longer the baking time. This means that 8 large Granny Smith apples would require 60 minutes of baking.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for 20 – 30 minutes before serving.
