This recipe for apple crisp is adapted from a classic 50-year-old recipe. It works best with fresh, crisp cooking apples.
Many of the Amish Restaurants we go to feature the Apple Crisp. This is one delicious dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups apples – peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter, softened
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
-
Arrange apple slices evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sift flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt into a bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry blender, or 2 knives, until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal; sprinkle over apples.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until topping is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
- The butter should be gently cut into the flour so it remains in small lumps. This will result in a light, crunchy topping.
