Saturday Stirrings ~ Apple Crisp

I must be hung up on apples lately because here I am posting another recipe starring apples.  A few weeks ago, my dad called me to let me know that he wanted to stop by our house on his way home from a business trip a few hours south of us.  He lives a couple of hours north.

They weren’t going to stay long, but I wanted something to serve him and my step-mother while they were here. I found this quick and easy recipe for apple crisp and it was a hit!

Apple Crisp

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 1/2 cups butter
• 2 quarts peeled, cored, and sliced apples

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large bowl, combine the flour, oatmeal, cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar.

Cut butter into mixture until crumbly.

Take half of the mixture and pat it into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Cover crumb mixture with apple slices, then sprinkle apple slices with remaining crumb mixture.

Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until apples are tender.

As usual, I forgot to take an after picture, but trust me, it looked much better than this when it was all cooked and brown on top.  As you can see, I added a little extra butter to the top.
