apple crisp
Apple crisp is a classic dessert that consists of a sweet and tender filling of cooked apples, topped with a crumbly mixture of butter, sugar, and flour. The apples used in an apple crisp recipe are tart and firm varieties. Popular choices include Granny Smith, Braeburn, and Honeycrisp. Apples are sliced and cooked with sugar, and spices such as cinnamon and sometimes lemon juice, creating a sweet and fragrant filling. The topping consists of a mixture of flour, sugar, butter, rolled oats, or nuts, giving it a crumbly texture. The combination of the warm, soft apples and the sweet, buttery topping creates a delicious contrast in texture and flavor. Bake the apple crisp until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
