Honey Apple Crisp

Smell the Apples - Feel the Memories


"Because of the fresh apples, this is one of our favorite fall desserts. I grew up in Upstate New York among the dairy farms and apple orchards. Every time I make this recipe, it reminds me of fall in New York and Dad coming home after riding our horse with his saddle bags filled with apples. He and the horse were both eating apples as they rode into the yard."

This recipe is so easy - you usually have everything you need in the cupboards.

6 cups sliced apples (about 2 pounds) - I like golden delicious mixed with granny smith

1 tsp. lemon juice

1/2 cup honey

1/3 cup all purpose flour

2/3 cup rolled oats (quick oats are okay)

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 tsp. salt

1/3 cup butter

Arrange apples in a greased baking dish (9x13) and sprinkle with lemon juice. Spread honey over apples. Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Sprinkle over apples. Bake at 375 until apples are tender and crust is browned and bubbly (about 30 minutes)

Makes 6 servings. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping. (serve warm but is good when cold too)
