Apple Crisp from The Neelys

September 23, 2009


Decided to make this apple crisp, since we were having company tonight. Well our company cancelled and I decided to make the apple crisp anyways. This apple crisp was so good! I haven't had granny smith apples in a LONG time! The granny smith apples, pecans, and maple syrup was just awesome - it was almost like a caramel apple! The topping was good too! I made this apple crisp in one big dish.

Cook Time: 35min - Level: Easy - Yield: About 8 Servings

Ingredients

Filling:

  • 5 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, chopped small
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Topping:

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into pieces
  • 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

For the Filling:

  • Mix all the ingredients together. Place into 7 to 8-ounce ramekins.

For topping:

Mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in large bowl. Blend the butter into the mixture until it forms pea size lumps. Stir in pecans and sprinkle over filling.

Bake crisps for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
