What to do with Extra Apples: Make Apple Crisp

Ingredients:

For the Filling:

• 6-8 McIntosh or Honeycrisp apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

For the Crisp Topping:

• 1 cup old-fashioned oats

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.

2. Prepare the Apple Filling: In a large bowl, combine the sliced McIntosh apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and all-purpose flour. Toss until the apples are evenly coated. Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

3. Make the Crisp Topping: In another bowl, mix together oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Add the melted butter and mix until everything is

combined and the mixture is crumbly.

1. Top the Apples: Spread the crisp topping evenly over the McIntosh apple mixture, covering it entirely.

2. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.

3. Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Enjoy!
