The Best Apple Crisp Recipe

1. 1

   Heat the oven to 350 and spray an 8x8" baking dish with nonstick spray.

For the Apples

1. 2

   Place the melted butter in a large bowl, and whisk in the flour, lemon juice, heavy cream, and vanilla until smooth.

2. 3

   Add the sugars and seasonings and whisk again until smooth.

3. 4

   Add the apples and gently fold to coat entirely.

4. 5

   Spread the apples in the bottom of a baking dish and set aside.

For the Topping

1. 6

   In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, seasonings and oatmeal.

2. 7

   Stir everything together.

3. 8

   Add the butter cubes and using a pastry cutter begin to cut in the butter. As the butter begins to be incorporated into the mixture, switch to using your hands and squeeze and mix everything together until it is like a very thick dough and no flour remains. We like clumps so I squeeze together little clots of dough to sprinkle over the top.

4. 9

   Top the apples with the mixture and bake for 25 minutes or until lightly golden in color, to p with foil and return to the oven for another 20 minutes.
