Ingredients for Apple And Apricot Crisp

  • Dried Apricot
  • 2 tablespoons brandy
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Dark Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter
  • Old Fashioned Oats
  • Sliced Almonds
  • 4 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 3 medium)

How to Make Apple And Apricot Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, soak 1/2 cup dried apricots in 2 tablespoons brandy for 5 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in 1 cup rolled oats and 1/2 cup sliced almonds.
  5. In a 9-inch glass pie dish, gently toss together 4 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 3 medium), the soaked apricots (including the brandy), and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  6. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apple and apricot mixture.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
