Apple Crisp Made Easy

Fall is a such a great time to take the kids apple picking. This year was a bit rough in Upstate NY as warm weather in March and a late frost in April damaged most orchards. However, we found some wonderful apples and made Apple Crisp this weekend. The entire house is warm with smells that delight the mind and spirit. (I highly recommend you buy an Apple Peeler from the Christmas Tree shop)

Ingredients. (Makes 2 9x13 pans)

4-5 pounds 10-15 apples peeled
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup uncooked rolled oats
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (1/2 stick), cut into small pieces, plus more for coating the dish

Grease the pans with butter. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, add the apples. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Layer the bottom of the plan with the apples. Next, in a sealed container, add all the ingredients including the cold butter(cut in small cubes). Shave vigorously. Top the apples with the mixture. Distribute evenly to ensure proper baking. Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes. At about 45 minutes, check the mixture, and stir with a spoon as needed to ensure a proper consistency.

Pull out of the over, serve warm with ice cream. Enjoy!
