Old-Fashioned Apple Crisp


As promised, I have a recipe for Apple Crisp to share with you. If you don't know, Apple Crisp is like apple pie without the crust...it is really good and really easy. We use this recipe from Recipezaar and it always turns out well. (The submitter says it is from her great-grandmother, so it is definitely tried and true!)

Apple crisp is one of my family's favorites and I almost always have the ingredients on hand to make it. We like it with vanilla ice cream :) I also add a some oats to the topping ingredients. It's about the only way some in our family will eat oats.

Maybe I should have read the ingredient list better! You also put oats in your apple crisp. Oh, well, it's getting late in the day for me, almost 4:00. Sorry about that!

I love love love apple crisp, and Fig counts it as one of his all time fav's. We do it with vanilla ice cream sometimes, and sometimes we melt cheddar or colby cheese on it. I know it is weird, I had never heard of such a thing until moving to New England but it is yummy. (we do the same with apple pie as well)

Is this one calorie friendly too or is it too much of friends with calories?
