Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a firm, tart apple that will hold its shape when baked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
- Peel and slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the crisp tough.
- Use a combination of sugars: White sugar and brown sugar will give the crisp a complex flavor.
- Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to the crisp.
- Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling: This will take about 45 minutes.
- Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This will make it even more delicious!
