I have been searching for just the right apple crisp recipie and think I just found it on the King Arthur flour web site! I made this for a dinner party last night and got great reviews. Fall is here in New England and nothing like apple crisp!
Filling:
- 9 cups sliced apples
- 1/4 c. rum or apple cider (I think you know what I chose!)
- 1/2 c. brown sugar (add more if your apples are tart)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Peel and slice apples 1/4 inch thick. Add rest of the ingredients and stir. Place in 8 x 11 baking pan.
Topping:
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 c. oats
- heaping 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 c. brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 c. cold butter
- 1/2 c. chopped walnuts or pecans
Mix together flour, oats, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder. Add butter and cut in to make a crumble mixture. Spread over apples. Bake 55 to 60 minutes in 350 oven. Done when bubbly. Of course you should serve this with nothing but Brighams vanilla ice cream!
