The Best Cinnamon Apple Crisp Recipe
Description: This classic apple crisp features tender, spiced apples topped with a buttery, cinnamon-sugar crumble. It’s a comforting and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients:
For the Apple Filling:
- 6 cups apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 6-8 medium apples; Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or a mix are great choices)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the Crisp Topping:
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Apple Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
- Transfer the apple mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Make the Crisp Topping:
- In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits of butter.
- Assemble and Bake:
- Evenly sprinkle the crisp topping over the apple mixture in the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the apple crisp to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This helps the juices thicken slightly.
- Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Enjoy your homemade cinnamon apple crisp!
