GREAT GRANDMA PEARSON'S APPLE CRISP

Recipe Notes: My grandmother inherited this recipe from her mother. This apple crisp is incredibly simple and delicious! Arriving at Grandma's house to see a fresh apple crisp cooling on her counter was one of the true treats of my childhood.

Preparation Time: About one hour

Quantity: One apple crisp

Source: Great Grandma Pearson

Ingredients:

• 4 apples, peeled and chopped
• 1 c. brown sugar
• 1 c. flour
• 1 c. quick or old-fashioned oats
• 1 c. butter
• Some granulated sugar for apples

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Place peeled and chopped apples in a 8- or 9-inch square pan or casserole dish. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the apples and set aside.
• Mix brown sugar, flour, oats, and butter together until just combined.
• Spread oat mixture over apples. Bake for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden brown.

Tips:

• If you'd like to cut back on fat, this recipe turns out well with 1/2 to 3/4 cup butter, rather than 1 full cup.
• This is excellent with vanilla ice cream!
