APPLE-RASPBERRY CRISP WITH PECAN CRUNCH TOPPING
Raspberries add a dash of color and tartness to the deliciously simple apple crisp, while pecans deliver crunch to the fragrant topping. Although the addition of applejack to the filling is outside the diner world, it punches up the apple flavor and gives the filling a nice kick. Make this dessert on a chilly autumn day, and serve it warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Steps:
- Make filling:
- In a heavy 5-quart kettle simmer filling ingredients with a pinch salt, covered, until apples are fully plumped, about 15 minutes. Uncover mixture and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick and any excess liquid is evaporated or absorbed, about 1 hour. (Reduce heat as liquid is evaporated or absorbed and stir mixture frequently toward end of cooking to prevent scorching.) Discard cinnamon sticks. Filling may be made 2 days ahead and cooled before being chilled, covered.
- Make topping:
- Cut butter into 1/2-inch pieces. In a food processor pulse butter, flour, and granulated sugar until crumbly. Transfer topping to a bowl and chill, covered, until ready to use.
- Make pastry dough when filling and topping are done:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Cut butter into 1/2-inch pieces. In cleaned food processor pulse together pastry dough ingredients and a pinch salt until mixture begins to gather together.
- Press dough evenly onto bottom and up side of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim. Line shell with foil and bake in middle of oven until shell is set, about 12 minutes. Gently remove foil (if foil sticks to shell, leave foil on and bake about 2 minutes more) and bake shell until edge is golden, about 5 minutes (tart shell will not be completely cooked).
- Immediately spoon filling into shell and crumble topping evenly over filling. Bake tart in middle of oven 30 minutes, or until topping is golden. Cool tart in pan on a rack. Tart may be made 1 day ahead and kept, covered and chilled, in pan. Reheat tart, uncovered, if desired or bring to room temperature before serving. Remove side of pan.
- Serve tart with whipped cream or ice cream.
APPLE CRISP WITH OAT TOPPING
This is the best dessert for the early fall when the sweet and firm apples are just in season. Use the best quality cinnamon you can get and get it from a spice merchant or even a store where you can get it bulk; it does make a difference. Within ten minutes of going in the oven the scent will fill the house and neighbors you loaned things to years ago will return them just to invite themselves in and wonder aloud if there is any left (Note: there isn't). Optional accompaniments would be caramel sauce, ice cream, and whipped cream.

Tips for Making Apple Crisp Topping:
- Use a variety of oats. Old-fashioned oats, quick-cooking oats, and even steel-cut oats can all be used in apple crisp topping. Using a combination of oats will give the topping a more complex texture and flavor.
- Don't overmix the topping. Overmixing will make the topping tough. Mix the topping ingredients just until they are combined.
- Use cold butter. Cold butter will help to keep the topping light and flaky. If you don't have cold butter, you can freeze the butter for 15 minutes before using it.
- Add some spices. Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger can add a lot of flavor to apple crisp topping. Add 1-2 teaspoons of your favorite spices to the topping mixture.
- Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown. The topping should be golden brown and the apples should be bubbling around the edges. This usually takes about 30-40 minutes.
