Old Fashioned Apple Crisp image

This apple crisp has the most crunchy, delectable topping. My husband has declared that he "can't imagine a better tasting apple crisp." I've prepared this recipe with Gala, Fuji and Honey Crisp apples. I use really large apples - about 4 pounds in all. (Oct-2016: Jona Gold & Mutsu are really good, too!) This recipe was...

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4-5 large apples, peeled, cored, sliced thin-ish
1 c almond meal (ground almonds)
1/2 c all purpose flour
2 c dark brown sugar
1 c butter, salted, melted
2 c oats, old fashioned style
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger *optional

Steps:

  • 1. Peel, core and chop apples. Place them in a 13X9X2 inch baking pan. Note: If you like the finished product to be less "juicy" - toss the apples in a little flour (and I will add a little cinnamon, too) to keep the liquids thick and not soupy.
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl, place all dry ingredients (brown sugar, oats, flour, cinnamon and almond meal) and mix thoroughly. Note: If using unsalted butter, I like to add a little sea salt to the crumble topping.
  • 3. Add the melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly with your hands. (Really smoosh it all together.)
  • 4. Sprinkle the topping all over the top of the apples and coat evenly.
  • 5. Bake crisp on center oven rack at 350F for 40-45 minutes. Apples should be bubbling and topping should be a deep golden color.
