Tips:

  • To make sure your apple crisp has a crispy topping, use a combination of oats, flour, sugar, and butter. You can also add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger for extra flavor.
  • If you like your apple crisp a little more gooey, add a cornstarch or flour slurry to the filling before baking. This will help thicken the juices and create a more syrupy consistency.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of apples. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. You can also use a mix of different varieties for a more complex flavor.
  • For a unique twist, try adding other fruits to your apple crisp, such as pears, peaches, or berries. You can also add nuts, seeds, or even chocolate chips.
  • Be sure to bake your apple crisp until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This will ensure that it's cooked through and has the perfect texture.
