For me, Apple Crisp is such a simple, yet incredible dessert in the Fall.
Wouldn’t you agree?

The experience of picking the apples off of the tree, peeling and slicing the apples and mixing the crisp topping is so wholesome. There is nothing like the smell of freshly picked apples in the fall.
Perhaps it is the memory of apple picking at my Grandparents’ apple orchard or the LOVE for fall with the crisp breeze and the sunny days. Perhaps Apple Crisp is a dessert that I remember fondly from my childhood. I honestly don’t know what it is, but Apple Crisp is a comfort food for me. I LOVE to bake Apple Crisp!

This simple apple crisp has few ingredients, is easy to make and is a perfect fall dessert.
Ingredients
- 6 apples, peeled and sliced
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
Instructions
- Put lemon juice, vanilla and maple syrup in a large bowl.
- Peel and slice apples and mix with the lemon juice mixture.
- Pour into your baking dish (I often use a deep dish pie plate).
- In a medium sized bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, oats and butter with your hands until butter is fully mixed in. The butter may resemble the size of peas.
- Sprinkle crisp topping on top of apples.
- Bake on a cookie sheet in a 375 degree oven for approximately 30 minutes or until apples are soft and bubbling and top has started to brown.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream (optional but delicious).
What is your favourite way to enjoy apples in the Fall?
BY far one of my favorite ‘fall’ desserts! Perfect way to use apples from the tree 🙂
I agree 🙂
Is it bad that I always eat the “crisp” and pass the apples along? Tee.. heee..
The crisp part is my FAVOURITE! BUT the apples are pretty great too – especially this time of year 😉
Going to store now!
LOL did you??
Oh I just love Apple crisp going to make this soon
One of my favs!
One of my favourite fall desserts to make
Me too 🙂
Thought about this all last evening till finally I went and made it,it turned out great but never lasted long lol
Now is the time to get out there and pick your own, then make the crisp, yummy
I’ve never made Apple Crisp. I’m always looking for nice recipes to try. I’m hoping to get into the apple and pumpkin baking craze during the fall season. Always have apples and bananas in my house…
Apple crisp is a family favourite. I like mixing up the types of apples, and I have even added a pear for a nice flavour. Don’t forget the cool whip.
Great idea to add pear!
Apple crisp is just so good. We also like to make simple baked apples. We drizzle some honey and cinnamon over the top of halved apples and bake. Good on its own or with ice cream. Yum! I love apple season.
Baked apples take me down memory lane into my childhood as my Mom would often make them – I’m not a HUGE fan of them though and I honestly can’t tell you why!
I’m hoping to get to the orchard this weekend. I love that you add maple syrup into your crisp. I’m going to need to try that!
Let me know what you think when you try it!
I agree! Apple crisps are simple yet SO delicious! We make (and eat) a lot of these in the fall! It’s a staple!
