Below is a list of ingredients and directions to how to create this magical recipe to come alive in your kitchen!

The Pickin's You Need To Gather Up: 

Topping:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup dark brown sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and chilled

Filling:

• 2 pounds apples (medium-large)

The Preparation To Follow: 

Topping:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add butter and use your fingers to rub the mixture together until resembles coarse crumbs. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator.

Filling:

1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375°F.
2. Peel apples and cut them in half. Scoop out the cores and discard. Cut the apple into 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick slices—about 6 cups total. Transfer slices to an ungreased 8-inch-square baking dish and spread them out evenly. Drizzle 1/4 cup of water over – less water if apples are particularly juicy.
3. Scatter the crisp topping evenly over the fruit without pressing down on it. Bake until the topping is browned, the apples are tender when pierced with a knife, and the juices are bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.

If you would like to spoil yourself a little more, adding vanilla ice cream on the side is a great suggestion! If you don’t have the time to get your apple crisps ready on the day of the party, you have the option to prepare this snack the day before and refrigerate it. You can simply warm them up in the oven the next day and it’ll still taste great!
