THE BEST APPLE CRISP



The Best Apple Crisp image

This is the best apple crisp i have ever tasted! The crisp part tastes like a shortbread cookie! Its a recipe from the food network show Barefoot Contessa. I only used 2 1/2 lbs of apples(about 5) but i prefer my apple crisps more crispy than appley! I also used Gala apples because they just happened to be on sale and it turned out great! You can use your own apple of choice! I also didnt have orange juice or the zests so i just used the bottled lemon juice and it tasted fine.You can also substitute berries, peaches, or any other fruit you like! This crisp also stays crisp if stored in the fridge!

  • Use a combination of granulated sugar and brown sugar. This will give the crisp a sweet and caramelized flavor.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the filling. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the apples and sugar.
  • Use a variety of spices in the filling. This will give the crisp a more complex flavor. Some good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Make sure the topping is evenly distributed over the apples. This will help to ensure that the crisp is cooked evenly.
  • Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling. This will take about 45 minutes.
  • Let the crisp cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from running out.
