Being that it's July we're getting into the beginning of prime apple season, and I'm an apple crisp nut. Nothing better than a warm bowl of apple crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert in my book. This is a modification of an old family recipe, and is well known among my friends as the best apple crisp. Now once again, I'm not a nut person so feel free to add your favorite nuts, but even those who can't imagine apple crisp without nuts loved mine... Alter at your own risk!
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Mix together in a large bowl then layer into a 9x13 pan (preferibly glass):
4 heaping cups apples (NOT granny smith, use golden delicious or braeburn or something sweet like that!)
1/2-1 cup sugar, depending on the apple sweetness
2 tbs flour
3. For the topping combine (keep in mind, I always make a double batch of this irresitible topping):
3/4 cup oatmeal
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter-I use Crisco butter flavored baking sticks, and it's way better for this recipe!!!
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
This should ideally form small clumps to layer over the apple mixture in the pan.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F for 35-40 minutes, let cool, and enjoy often!
