Let’s make our favorite apple crisp recipe! My favorite part about this recipe is how quickly it comes together. This apple crisp recipe is all the things, it's easy, delicious, and full of all those warm fall flavors that we love. Cinnamon, apples, and brown sugar? Yes please!




Apple Crisp Recipe Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this easy apple crisp recipe:

Apples, make sure to use good baking apples here. See the callout below for my favorite varieties!

Whole rolled oats – They add great texture to the crumble topping.

All-purpose flour – You’ll add some to the filling to thicken the apple juices and use more in the topping.

Brown sugar – brown sugar gives a deeper caramel-like flavor.

Unsalted butter – It brings the streusel topping together and adds rich, buttery flavor.

Vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg – For warm depth of flavor.

And sea salt – To make all the flavors pop!


WHAT ARE THE BEST APPLES FOR BAKING?

The best apples for baking are firm apples that hold their shape. These are my top favorite varieties:

•Fuji

•Golden Delicious

•Granny Smith

•Honeycrisp

I love to use a mix of two apples when I bake!



Let’s bake!


Ingredients

  • 6 large apples, 2½ pounds, peeled, cored, and chopped into ¾-inch pieces

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg

  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt

Crumble Topping


Method

Start by prepping the apples

Peel them, core them, and chop them into roughly 3/4-inch pieces. Do your best to cut the all the pieces to a similar size so that they cook evenly.



Next Place the apples in a large bowl and add the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Toss until the flour, sugar, and spices evenly coat the apples.


Then, spread the apples in a greased 8×8-inch baking dish.



Next, make the crumble topping

Stir together the melted butter, flour, sugar oats, cinnamon, and salt.

Stir until the oat mixture becomes moist and crumbly.


Finally

Sprinkle the crisp topping over the apples in the baking dish.

Finally, bake your apple crisp. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake at 375°F for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the apples are bubbling. Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes or so, until the topping is golden brown and lightly crisp.

Let cool for 10 minutes before digging in!

Happy Baking!!
