How to Make Apple Cranberry Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, cranberries, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Toss gently to coat.
  3. Pour the apple mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the cold butter, rolled oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the oat crumble evenly over the apple mixture.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional)!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
