Tips:

Use a variety of apples. This will give your apple crisp a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
Peel and core the apples before slicing them. This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent the skins from toughening.
Don't overcrowd the baking dish. The apples should be in a single layer so that they can cook evenly.
Use a combination of white and brown sugar. This will give the apple crisp a rich, caramelized flavor.
Add a pinch of salt. This will help to balance the sweetness of the apples and sugar.
Top the apple crisp with a mixture of oats, flour, butter, and brown sugar. This will create a crispy, golden-brown topping.
Bake the apple crisp until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. This usually takes about 45 minutes.
Let the apple crisp cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the topping to set.
