Apple Crisp. Need I say MORE?
There is something about the fall weather and the comfort and amazing aroma of The Best Pantry Apple Crisp! Better yet you don’t have to go far for the simple ingredients.
I have tried a dozen of Apple Crisp recipes- waiting to run into that perfect crunchy oatmeal topping that makes Apple Crisp soooo delightful. Whether you like more of a batter type, crumb with oatmeal, crumb with lots of sugar, crunchy, or creamy topping- The Best Ever Pantry Apple Crisp hits the JACKPOT everytime!
You can make your own apple mixture by just adding a little cornstarch, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and pinch of salt to your peeled, sliced apples- Or- use canned apple pie filling (aka the pantry method).
I am lucky enough to spend quality time in the kitchen with my mom in the fall months canning Homemade Apple Pie Filling- and boy is it ever AMAZING!!!!
I love making this dish when company comes over because it’s SUPER yummy and SUPER quick 🙂
INGREDIENTS:
- Apple Pie Filling of your choice
- 2/3 c. flour
- 2/3 c. brown sugar
- 2/3 c. oatmeal
- pinch of salt
- 1 stick of butter, softened
- Your favorite caramel sauce ( I love Mrs. Richardson’s Brand)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Place filling of your choice in a greased 8×8 pan.
- Mix the flour, sugar, salt, and oatmeal together.
- Using pastry blender if you have one, or a fork, work in the butter until you have a course crumb mixture. This is really important that you mix the butter in good until you don’t have much of any powder mixture left. You want pea size pieces of crumb. In order go get the crumb crunchy topping this step is very important-otherwise you will be left with a powder topping which is not what we want at all!
- Next, cover the apples with your crumb mixture.
- Take a butter knife and swirl it through your pan making a “S” shape (I love this tip as it gets the crumb deep into the mixture so you just don’t have it on top)
- Then pop it into a 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes to an hour until the top is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and immediately drizzle with your favorite caramel sauce.
- Serve warm and Enjoy!
Chef Notes:
- I also almost always double the crumb topping mixture as I love lots of crumb topping.
