Fruit or Apple Crisp

“Lot’s of crunchy topping on this apple crisp.”

Update: The recipe below was my original large batch crisp. To make a smaller batch I use the same 1-2-4 ratio. One part butter, two parts brown sugar, 4 parts oats. So for example 1/4 cup butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 cup oats. I often skip the flour, it just makes for a looser crisp. You can use this ratio for any fruit crisp.

Also for ease of measuring 1/4 cup butter is 57 grams.

INGREDIENTS
    • TOPPING
    • 2 cups oats
    • 1 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup flour
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • large pinch nutmeg
    • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • apples, chopped (Spy or Ida Red are good choices)
DIRECTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 375F. Spray or grease top edges of 9 x 13 casserole pan.
  2. Fill bottom of pan with chopped apples.
  3. Mix topping ingredients. Spread over apples.
  4. Bake 40-45 minutes or until apples are soft.

Note: if making crisp in 1.5 litre casserole dish use one-half of topping recipe.
