Bek's Baked Apple Crisp
By: Gatorbek
Apr 9, 2008
This recipe is my own version, modeled after my own apple pie. Usually, this is made using ingredient amounts that basically include a pinch and a dash, a squeeze and a scosh. Finally, I made myself slow down and kind of measure everything out so that I could post it here. These are, of course, approximate. I've written this to make four individual crisps, the way we eat it, but if you want to make one big crisp, just add 10 minutes to the baking time. I don't use nuts, but if you want to add some nuts such as pecans to the topping, just replace about a 1/4 cup of the oats with them. Also, I'm not a huge fan of very sweet desserts - this even pushes the limits for me. If you prefer sweeter desserts, increase the sugars in the filling to your taste.
SERVES 4 , 4 crisps
Ingredients
Filling
- 3 cups tart apples, peeled diced and sliced (I use only Granny Smith)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 dash clove
Topping
- 4 tablespoons butter (maybe a little more)
- 3/4 cup rolled oat
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F Butter 4 individual casserole dishes. (If you choose to make one large crisp, you'll increase baking time by about 10 minutes.) I often forget the butter. No biggie.2
I love to cook, but hate doing dishes, so I make this all in one pot. In a medium pot (NO HEAT!) combine apples and lemon juice and toss well to coat. Add in the rest of the filling ingredients, brown sugar, white sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir well to combine, breaking up any lumps of sugar or flour.3
Pour equal amounts of apple mixture into the four casseroles. They should be about half full. Set aside.4
In the same pan (see? one less bowl to wash!) melt the butter over medium lo heat. Once butter is melted, turn off heat.5
Add in remaining topping ingredients: oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and nuts if you're using them. Stir to combine well, again, breaking up any obvious lumps of sugar or flour.6
**The topping should not be "wet", but if it seems TOO dry, and the butter does not seem to have coated all of the oats, then add in an additional tablespoon of butter. It won't hurt anything.7
Pour mixture equally over the apples in each dish. They should be almost full, but not overflowing.8
Place the dishes on a cookie sheet, just in case the filling does overflow. Bake for 30 minutes (40 if you're making one big crisp).9
Allow to cool, serve with milk, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream.

This is a delicious apple crisp recipe! It's really wonderful with great flavor! My DH, who is a big apple crisp fan, raved about it. I will be making this often.

I agree that some desserts are just too sweet. This one though, was perfect! The one-pot method is nothing short of genius. I was able to make this recipe, a baked oatmeal in ramekins AND keep the kitchen clean all at the same time. I told DH that when he came home while DD & I were at tumbling class he'd have a hot breakfast of baked oatmeal waiting for him. I didn't mention that I'd made tonight's dessert as well. But when I got home & he was gone again I realized he'd eaten the apple crisp! When he came home from work he said, "I wasn't sure what to do. I didn't want to eat the food that needed a photo so I chose the big pan instead of the cute little individual ones." Well, I couldn't get a good photo of the half eaten pan, so for brunch DD & I had apple crisp & ice cream. Some days are just fun like that! I'll be making this quick & easy dessert often! Thanks for sharing such a great recipe, Bek! Made in gratitude for encouraging my interest in photo taking.

WONDERFUL! I made a half recipe in 2 ramekins using: 1 granny smith apple, half the amount of Splenda brown sugar, Splenda granular and added 1/4 cup golden raisins and some fresh OJ to the topping. It baked up beautifully with spiced apples and plump raisins and a chewy candy like topping. YUM! Made for the 1-2-3 hit wonders tag game.

Ooh this is so yummy! I made 3 individual servings for brunch using 3 golden delicious apples and halved the sugar amounts for the apple portion of this recipe. I sprinkled the apple slices with a few sliced almonds before putting the topping on. Also for the topping, I didn't melt the butter, but made a crumble topping using firm butter. The topping was piled high when I placed them in the oven on a foil covered baking sheet (to make clean up easy). Baking them softened the apples, and melted the topping down so it ended up almost level with the top of the ramekins when they were done. They turned out perfect. Simple and easy, this is a wonderful brunch or dessert item. Thanks for posting!
