Time 1h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, plus more for the baking dish
2 1/2 pounds apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Pinch of ground nutmeg
1/2 cup pecans, walnuts or almonds, finely chopped
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of fine sea salt
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a large baking dish and set aside. Place the apples, lemon juice and vanilla in a large bowl and toss to coat. Add the granulated sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons flour and nutmeg, stirring to combine.
  • Place remaining 1 cup flour, nuts, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Using a pastry cutter or 2 knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the mixture over the apples. Bake until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream.

This apple crisp was a disappointment. The topping was dry and crumbly, and the apples were mushy. I won't be making this recipe again.

So good! This apple crisp is the perfect fall dessert. The apples are perfectly tender and the topping is crispy and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

Delicious! The apple crisp was easy to make and tasted amazing. The topping was the perfect combination of crispy and chewy. I will definitely be making this again.

Meh. The crisp was okay, but nothing special. The topping was a bit dry and the apples were a bit too soft. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Easy to follow recipe and turned out delicious! I used granny smith apples and they held their shape well. The brown sugar topping was a nice touch. Will definitely make again.

This apple crisp was a hit! The oat topping was crispy and flavorful, and the apples were perfectly tender and sweet. I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the filling for extra flavor. This recipe is a keeper!
