Tips:

  • Prep Your Apples: Peel and slice your apples evenly for consistent cooking and presentation. Granny Smith apples are a popular go-to due to their tartness, which balances the sweetness of the other ingredients.
  • Don't Overwork the Topping: While you want a crumbly topping, overworking it can result in a tough texture. Use your hands or a pastry blender to combine the ingredients until they resemble coarse crumbs.
  • Enhance the Flavor: Add a teaspoon of ground cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, or a splash of vanilla extract to the apple mixture for extra depth of flavor.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: Keep an eye on the crisp as it bakes. The topping should be golden brown and the apples should be bubbling around the edges.
  • Serve Warm with Desired Accompaniments: Apple crisp is traditionally served warm, often accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
