This classic apple crisp recipe is a comforting and delicious dessert that combines tender, cinnamon-spiced baked apples with a buttery oat crumble topping. Perfect served warm with vanilla ice cream, it’s an easy-to-make treat ideal for any season, especially autumn.

Ingredients

Scale

Apple Mixture

  • 5 cups fresh apples, sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Crumble Topping

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup old fashioned oats
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a deep dish pie plate or large baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking and set it aside.
  2. Mix Apples: In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure all apple slices are evenly coated. Transfer this mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  3. Prepare Crumble Topping: In a separate medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture is fully coated and crumbly in texture.
  4. Assemble and Bake: Evenly sprinkle the crumbly topping over the apple mixture in the baking dish. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the apple crisp from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. For the best experience, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Enjoy your delicious apple crisp!

Notes

  • You can use your favorite variety of apples, but tart apples like Granny Smith work best to balance the sweetness.
  • If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • For added texture, consider mixing chopped nuts such as walnuts or pecans into the crumble topping.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the oven.
  • The dessert pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or custard as alternatives to ice cream.
