Apple-Ginger CrispCookbook
Few desserts say "autumn baking" more than an apple crisp.
Yield
: makes 4 servings
Prep Time
: 20 mins
Cooking Time
: 45 mins
Ingredients
- 1lb 2oz (500g) Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp chopped crystallized ginger
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
for the topping
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 6 tbsp butter, at room temperature
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup rolled (old-fashioned) oats
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Combine the apples, ginger, and lemon juice in a 6 cup square baking dish and toss.
2. To make the topping, combine the flour and butter in a large mixing bowl and rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture is combined. Work in the sugar and oats. The mixture should remain lumpy.
3. Crumble the topping over the apples. Press the topping down gently to level it. Bake for 45 minutes, until golden and crisp. Serve hot, warm, or cold.
