How to Make Apple Cherry Crisp
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 4 cups peeled and sliced apples, 2 cups pitted and halved cherries, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Pour the fruit mixture evenly into a non-reactive 10-inch pie pan or 9-inch square baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg white, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons apple juice.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry oat mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional) over the fruit filling.
- Carefully crumble the oat topping evenly over the fruit filling.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then uncover and continue baking for another 20-30 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional).
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.
