Tip-sy Tuesday: apple crisp with a twist

Jenny made apple crisp for my birthday last night and had a delicious twist that I've never done - spoon warm caramel sauce over top of warm apple crisp and vanilla ice cream. It was SO good that way. Today's tip is to add caramel, trust me - it's a good tip!! 

This is the recipe she followed for the crisp, the only change she made is cutting the butter back to 1/4 cup and I can tell you that it didn't make a difference at all. Keeper recipe for sure. 

  • 6 golden delicious apples, peeled and chopped
  • 2 T. sugar
  • 1 3/4 t. ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1 1/2 t. lemon juice
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, diced into small cubes
  • pinch of kosher salt
1. Preheat oven to 350'. Butter an 8x8 baking dish, or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside. 
2. Ina mixing bowl, add chopped apples, sugar, 3/4 t. of the cinnamon and lemon juice. Stir to combine, then transfer to the prepared baking dish. 
3. In a separate mixing bowl, add topping ingredients (brown sugar, oats, flour, butter, salt). Use a pastry cutter (or two forks, or your hands) to cut the butter into the oat mixture until resembles pea sized crumbs. 
4. Spread topping evenly over apples and bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. 

Sorry I forgot to take a picture, I was too busy inhaling this dessert!
