Did y'all know that September through November is National Apple Month? When I heard about this, I thought this recipe would be quite fitting to post ;) This lovely dessert reminds me of an apple pie, minus the crust. When you are baking it in the oven, the aroma of the cinnamon and apples seriously will remind everyone in your house that fall has arrived! What a great way to use up all those left over apples also. Some people prefer to put oatmeal in their apple crisps, but I'm not a big fan of oatmeal in my crisp, so this recipe was perfect. Another advantage, it's super easy and only uses a total of 5 ingredients (not counting water)! Yes, 5 ingredients!! Who would have thought?! This has definitely become a favorite at our house and we hope it becomes a favorite in yours as well. Feel free to add more then just cinnamon into the filling. A little dash of nutmeg and a few sprinkles of Apple Pie Spice would probably taste even yummier. Serve with a few scoops of vanilla icecream ;)
Homemade Apple Crisp
4 cups sliced Granny Smith apples
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
A little over 1/4 cup of water
1 cup white sugar or 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish.
Place apples in prepared dish. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Pour water over all. In a bowl, cream together sugar and butter. Blend in flour. Sprinkle mixture evenly over apples.
Bake in preheated oven 30 to 40 minutes, until apples are tender and crust is golden.

ReplyDeleteI love the look of your blog. It is inviting and attractive.
This is very much like the recipe I've used for years. Sometimes when I'm in a rush, I bake it in the microwave for about 12 minutes...try it, you'll like it. Awesome topped with ice cream too! I'm definitely going to have to make this soon.
