Classic Apple Crisp

By Lorraine

Classic apple crisp is so easy and delicious! A crumb topping of brown sugar and cinnamon over tender apples. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

It doesn’t get easier than this. Just because a dessert is simple to make and uses just a handful of ingredients doesn’t mean it isn’t wonderful. Classic apple crisp is full of tender apples with a topping of buttery brown sugar and cinnamon.

Classic Apple Crisp Recipe

Serves 6-8

PRINT RECIPE

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 8 tablespoons butter, chilled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2-pounds, firm sweet apples (about 4 large apples)

 

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

  • Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium-size bowl. Using a pastry blender or whisk, toss until blended.
  • Add, butter and cut in using the pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  • Peel the apples, cut in half and remove the core. (I like to use a melon baller to easily remove core). Slice apples into 1/2-inches slices. (You should have about 6-cups of apples)
  • Fill a 8-inch by 8-inch square baking dish with the apples. Spoon the topping mixture evenly on top of the apples. Do not press down.
  • Bake about 50 minutes, until the topping is browned, the apples are tender and the juices are bubbly.
  • Remove from oven and let cook 10-15 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Sprinkle in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until all flour is moistened and dough almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 tsp. of water can be added if needed).Gather dough into ball, shape into flattened round on lightly floured cloth-covered board. (For two-crust pie, divide dough in half and shape into 2 flattened rounds.) With floured stockinet-covered rolling pin, roll dough 2 inches larger than inverted pie pan. Fold pastry into quarters, unfold and ease into pan.For one-crust pie: Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pan. Fold and roll pastry under, even with pan; flute. Fill and bake as directed in recipe.For baked pie shell: Prick bottom and side thoroughly with fork. Bake at 475 for 8 to 10 minutes.For two-crust pie: Turn desired filling into pastry-lined pie pan. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1/2 inch from rim of pan. Roll second round of dough. Fold into quarters; cut slits so steam can escape. Place over filing and unfold. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pan. Fold and roll top edge under lower edge, pressing on rim of seal; flute. Cover edge with 2- to 3-inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil last 15 minutes of baking.
