APPLE CRISP
Thinly sliced Granny Smith apples baked with a cinnamon glaze and oatmeal crumb topping. The BEST Apple Crisp recipe Ever!
Apple Crisp is one of those recipes that most people probably have on hand, but I dare you to try this recipe! It was always one of my favorite fall desserts growing up.
Soft baked apples with the most delicious oat/crumb topping! What’s not to love? Let me just say, if you do already have a recipe for apple crisp, you will probably never make it again after you taste this!
This Apple Crisp recipe is the best! It’s so incredibly easy to throw together and the flavors are A-Mazing! You will notice that this recipe uses Granny Smith Apples as I think that they are the best apples to use in apple crisp!
Start by peeling and slicing a few granny smith apples. I use my Johnny Apple Peeler for this part because it does the work for me. It PEELS, CORES and SLICES the apple all at once! I once made this apple crisp for a party of 200 people and the Johnny apple peeler was a life saver.
