How to Make Aunt Barb S Apple Crisp
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups).
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Pour the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 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 dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. If the topping browns too quickly, cover the edges of the dish loosely with foil.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of ice cream.
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.
