Apple Crisp

I decided to make dessert to bring over to Josh and Jessica's one night and think I may have stumbled upon William's favorite treat. I suspected it was a success when I left with an empty dish but knew I'd hit the jackpot when I got back to Patty and Steve's and their dish was empty as well. Thank you Betty Crocker for, once again, making me look good :)


Apple Crisp

4 cups apples - use a variety - peeled and thinly sliced
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/3 margarine or butter
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 - 1/2 tsp ground cloves

Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Preheat oven to 375. Grease an 8 x 8 glass dish and set aside.

Prepare apples, mixing the slices together. Spread bottom of the baking dish with the apples. Mix all remaining ingredients (except whipped cream/ice cream) in a bowl, cutting the butter into the mixture until crumbly. Use hands to mix if necessary. Sprinkle mixture on top of apple slices, covering completely. Bake for 30 minutes or until topping is golden and apples are tender. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
