Ingredients

FOR THE APPLES:

  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice

FOR THE APPLE CRISP TOPPING:

  • 7 tablespoons cold butter cut into 14 pieces

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

PREP THE OVEN:

  • Move oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

FOR THE APPLES:

  • In a large bowl add the apples, sugar, and lemon juice and toss to combine.
  • Pour apple mixture into an 8-inch square baking pan, and make sure the apples are evenly distributed. Set aside.

FOR THE TOPPING:

  • Add the butter, pecans, flour, oats, granulated and brown sugar, apple pie spice, and salt into the work bowl of a food processor. Pulse the food processor until the mixture looks like crumbly sand.

TO FINISH:

  • Evenly cover the apples with the topping and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the toppings deep golden brown and the apple mixture is bubbling. Move apple crisp to a wire rack to cook for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, and caramel sauce (all optional).

Notes

  • The nutritional information is for one serving of the apple crisp recipe. It does not include the nutritional information for optional toppings. 
  • This is a great, versatile recipe that can be used with other fruits like peaches, pears, nectarines, or plums.
  • I love serving this apple crisp with my Homemade Salted Caramel Sauce. The salted caramel and warm crisp are incredible together.
