Best Kittencals Apple Crisp Dessert Recipes

KITTENCAL'S BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F.
• I prefer to bake the apples on the second-lowest oven rack to prevent the apples from darkening on the bottom if you do so then you might need to increase baking time slightly.
• Prepare an 8 x 8-inch baking pan.
• Wash and scrub the skins of the apples then dry.
• Remove the cores to about 1/2 to 3/4-inch from the bottom (do not core all the way through and make the core about 3/4-inch wide).
• In a bowl combine the brown sugar with cinnamon, nutmeg (if using) and raisins.
• Place the cored apples into the baking pan, then divide/stuff the mixture into each hole of the apples.
• Top/dot with 2 teaspoons butter.
• Pour the boiling water into the pan.
• Bake for about 30-40 minutes or until just fork tender basting the apples with the pan liquid several times during baking (do not overbake or the apples will be mushy, check after about 25 minutes of baking time).
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

KITTENCAL'S APPLE CRISP DESSERT

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F.
• Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
• Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
• Prepare two separate medium bowls.
• In each bowl place 1 cup oats, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1 cup flour, 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda; toss to combine.
• To each bowl mix in 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons melted butter; mix well to combine then finish mixing using your hands until the mixture is crumbly.
• To one bowl only add in 1/2 cup nuts (this bowl will be your topping mixture).
• Sprinkle the bowl without the nuts into the bottom of the baking dish; pat down only slightly with hand.
• For the apple filling; in a bowl toss the apple slices with lemon juice.
• In a small bowl mix together 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, 2 teaspoons cinnamon and nutmeg; toss to combine; add to the sliced apples then toss to combine.
• Place the apples over the crumb crust.
• Sprinkle the remaining topping (with nuts) over the apple mixture.
• Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until apples are fork-tender (stick a fork into the apples after about 35 minutes of cooking time to see if they are cooked to desired doneness).
• Serve with vanilla ice cream.

CROCK POT APPLE CRISP DESSERT

Steps:

• Generously spray a crock pot with non stick cooking spray, line with apples.
• Mix together flour, sugar, spices and margarine in a bowl.
• Cover the apples with this mixture.
• (Pack it on top.) Cook on high for 3-4 hours.
• Scoop out a portion and serve with any or all of the optional toppings: Vanilla ice cream, Whipped cream or whipped topping, if desired.
• * I use a medium size crock pot to make this. Using a large crock pot will probably not work well as the ingredients will be too spread out and may burn around the edges.

CARAMEL-APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• In large bowl, stir together caramel topping and the cinnamon until blended. Add apples; toss until evenly coated. Spread in ungreased 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish.
• In same bowl, mix 2/3 cup flour and the brown sugar. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through mixture in opposite directions), until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Stir in oats. Crumble mixture over apples in baking dish.
• Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until apples are tender and topping is golden brown. If desired, serve with whipped cream and additional caramel topping.
