Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. 2. Peel and thinly slice 6 medium-sized apples. You can use any type of apple you prefer, but we recommend using Granny Smith apples for their tartness and firm texture. 3. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well. 4. Add 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well combined. The mixture should be crumbly. 5. Add the sliced apples to the mixing bowl and toss them with the crumbly mixture until the apples are fully coated. 6. Optional: If you want to add some extra flavor and texture to your apple crisps, you can mix in 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans work well) and/or 1/2 cup of raisins or dried cranberries. 7. Transfer the apple mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly. 8. Bake the apple crisps in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. 9. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. 10. Serve the apple crisps warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top.
