Apple Crisp

Autumn in NY + fresh picked apples = heaven.

6-8 c. apples, peeled and sliced
3 Tbl. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

2 c. oatmeal (I prefer old-fashioned rather than instant)
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 c. chopped pecans (optional)
1/2 c. butter, melted
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving


Combine apples, 3 Tbl. sugar, and 1 tsp. of cinnamon in a bowl.  Transfer to a greased baking dish (this amount usually fits perfectly in my 7 x 11 pan).  Thoroughly combine remaining ingredients (using your hands if necessary) and crumble over the top the of the apples.  Bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes, or until the apples mixture starts bubbling.  Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream (or cold/reheated for breakfast the next morning :).

  2. We just went apple picking today. I honestly can say it's my favorite thing to do in the whole world! I might just have to make this apple crisp tomorrow evening.

  5. My kids helped me make this. They love it. This morning someone mentioned that they once ate a blackberry apple crisp that was really good, so I decided to add 2 cups of blackberries. I added an additional TBSP of sugar to compensate for the tartness of the blackberries, and I also added 1 cup of pecans instead of 1/2 cup. I had a couple of bites and it was very good!
