Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

Topping
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Apples
2 pounds tart green apples, peeled, cored, sliced
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup apple juice
1/4 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • For Topping
  • Mix first 3 ingredients in small bowl. Add butter and rub with fingertips until mixture begins to form small moist clumps.
  • For Apples:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Combine apples, raisins, apple juice, sugar, cinnamon and cloves in heavy large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until apples are tender, stirring occasionally, about 13 minutes. Transfer mixture to 9-inch glass pie dish.
  • Sprinkle topping over apples. Bake until topping is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Spoon dessert onto plates. Top with whipped cream or ice cream.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of tart and sweet apples. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Don't overcook the apples: The apples should be soft but still hold their shape. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.
  • Use a variety of spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all classic spices that go well with apples. You can also add a pinch of cardamom or cloves for a more complex flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: The butter in the topping is what makes it so crispy and delicious. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount.
  • Serve the crisp warm: Apple crisp is best enjoyed warm from the oven. You can top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.

Conclusion:

Apple crisp is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of sweet apples, crunchy topping, and warm spices, it's the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
