I’ll boast a lot about the food I cook… “This is really good” or “You’ve got to try out this one, you’ll love it”. But with all of those meals, there’s always a little room for improvement. This recipe though, this recipe has been THE apple crisp for us for over a decade now. It’s the one everyone loves from first bite, the one everyone wants the recipe to.
And here’s the biggest shocker: It’s the one that is just so, SO easy to make. It’s my go-to dessert if I’m in a pinch, or I’ve got company coming over. The hardest part is just cutting up the apples, and that takes a whole five minutes. Slice them nice and thin, like this:
The apple crisp is super easy to make. Just slice up all the apples and toss them into your baking dish. Whisk together the sugar, flour, and cinnamon and pour that over the apples. Toss them with a spoon and add the water, then just mix together the crumble and put it on top. 45 minutes later it’s out of the oven and making your house smell incredible!
Thanksgiving is just around the corner (Hi fellow Canadians!), and we’re right in the heart of apple season, so it’s the perfect time to show this one off. You know what my favourite part about the holiday season is? Giving stuff away, and I’m starting things off this year with a 2.5 Quart Vermillion Baker from CW by CorningWare for one of my fellow Canadians! Wondering what CW by CorningWare is? It’s the same trusted CorningWare that we’ve been using forever, they’ve just made it really fun with some bright new colours (like teal, my favourite!!)
GIVEAWAY TIME! We’re going to do this super easily this time, just leave me a comment on this post, either about the recipe, or something you love to make for the holidays. The winner will be picked at random on Monday October 12, 2015. The winner will receive a 2.5 Quart Vermillion Baker from CW by CorningWare (Retail value $21.99), shipped straight to their door within about 4 weeks. It’s open to all residents of Canada with a valid address (sorry, it can’t be shipped to P.O. Boxes). Good luck everyone, and have a FABULOUS Thanksgiving!
UPDATE: Congratulations to Karla Sceviour for winning the 2.5 Quart Vermillion Baker from CW by CorningWare!
Best Ever Apple Crisp
Ingredients
- 10 small apples, peeled and sliced thinly (Gala for a sweeter crisp, Granny Smith for a tarter one)
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup water (if you like a runnier crisp, you can use up to ½ cup)
- 2 cups quick-cooking oats
- 2 cups flour
- 2 cups packed light brown sugar
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 350ºF with a rack in the middle position.
- Put the apple slices into a large oven safe dish.
- Whisk together the 1 tablespoon of flour, white sugar, and cinnamon. Sprinkly evenly over top of the apples, then toss with a spoon to coat. Pour the water over the apples, do not mix.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, oats, 2 cups flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Pour in the melted butter and mix well to combine (just use your hands). The mixture should form medium chunks.
- Evenly sprinkle the topping over the apple mixture.
- Bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown, and the filling is bubbling up at the edges.

I would definitely like to make lasagna or baked oatmeals with it!
Nicoletta @sugarlovespices
We love crisps! They are so easy to make, yet so yummy! I would definitely bake a crisp in my new corningware 🙂 A pear and plum crisp, maybe… Thanks for sharing!
Julia (@Imagelicious)
Such a great recipe and the colours of the baking set are amazing. I also love cooking with apples in the fall. I know it’s all about pumpkin usually, but it’s the apples that make me appreciate fall.
Wendy W
This looks so delicious!! Was wondering if you have ever baked this for a potluck where it’s not eaten right away? Does the crumble stay crisp?
Katrina
Hey Wendy! The crumble will absolutely stay crisp for you for hours. Most of the time when I make it we only get through half, and I cover it with foil and put it in the fridge once it’s cooled, then the next night I just warm it back up, and the crumble is still crisp then too 🙂 Hope you like it!
Audrey
Will Old Fashioned Oats work as a substitute for Quick cooking oats?
Katrina
Hey Audrey, Sorry it took me a day to get back to you, I got to take off for a kid-free anniversary weekend, and I tried to stay offline. You can absolutely use old fashioned oats in this recipe! I just want to mention that you were smart to double check though – in a lot of recipes you can’t substitute them (especially going the other way, subbing quick cooking for old fashioned). Apple crisp is one of the few exceptions though, so use them and enjoy!

Recipe step 2 says to add together 1 tblesppon flour then flour, that is very misleading.
Katrina
Sorry about that, I’ve removed the repeated “flour”

Apple crisp is one of my favorite fall desserts. I actually have a bunch of apples on my counter right now. I think I need to make this 🙂
janet @ the taste space
Love the colours of the new bakeware! Apple crisp is definitely a family favourite for the fall. I wonder whether you could freeze a premade crisp with these dishes and cook it straight in the oven? Ideas….

Would love to win that beautiful Corning Ware! Love that they added colour to their classic cookware. That Corning Ware can be used for other dishes as well. Thanks for giving us a chance to win it
Andrea
Hi! I want to make this for a baby shower tomorrow and was wondering if I make it today, should I bake it all today and just keep it covered on the counter/fridge or can I put it all together unbaked and keep it in the fridge and toss it in the oven tomorrow. Thanks so much!
Katrina
Hey Andrea! I would worry about the apples browning on you if you leave it unbaked in the fridge. I would say either bake it tonight, then just reheat tomorrow (in the oven), or make it today and throw it in the freezer, then bake it from frozen tomorrow. Same temperature, just takes a little longer.
Hope you have a great baby shower!!!
Anonymous
Great idea with the freezer! Thanks so much!
Katrina
No problem! I’m just glad that I saw the alert on my phone right away. I would have felt horrible if I didn’t see until tomorrow 🙂

Recipe states to mix flour with the apples & also to mix the flour with the oats & brown sugar. It doesn’t give specific amounts for the flour though. Help!!!
Katrina
Sorry!! Small amount of flour with apples, larger amount with the oats!! I’ll update it when I’m back home!!
Julie
Perfect! Thank you!
Claudine
OMG! That was tooooooo sweet for me!
The essence of the apple is completely gone!
Not a GO for our family!
We had a sugar rush even if the white sugar was reduced…
Henry Croft
“Best ever” – not sure it will beat my mum’s one haha!
This does look delish though, so I’ll give it a go!
Amanda
I made this today and it turned out wonderful! I only used 1/4 cup water. I also cut the topping in half. It seemed like a lot when I was looking at the recipe. Even with 1/2 the topping, it was DELICIOUS! A new family favorite 🙂
Katrina
Yay! There is a lot of topping, and splitting it in 1/2 works just fine! It’s the kids and Bo’s favourite part, so I’m pretty heavy handed with it.
ArleeBee
Yes yes yes yes yessss! Absolutely delicious crumble !!! The amount is a bit much but that how I like it ! It’s perfectly crisp!!! I used gala and Granny Smith just to be different and it turned out yummy !!! Loved with whip and vanilla ice cream ! Make the recipe it’s well worth it and simple !
Letitia Andrade King
This is the best recipe ever, I only use a 1/2 C of sugar and I use a little nutmeg, I sell desserts every week and they love the Apple Crisp….Thank you!
River
I wrote a whole big thing but the page refreshed and it deleted so long story short this is in fact the best apple crisp ever! I only had large/medium apples and I didn’t know how many to use so I ended up not using enough. So it would be nice to see like cups worth of apple instead of just the number amount. Also it made a HUGE amount and my dish wasn’t big enough so specifying how big the dish should be would have been nice too. I used a recipe someone else had printed out so I didn’t get the visual of the dish. Other than that. It was fucking delicious and super easy! Made it on Wednesday and it’s now Saturday and I’m still eating it. It’s still super yummy. Going to bring some to my therapist tomorrow! ALSO I made mine vegan by using vegan margarine instead of butter and it came out amazing! Will definitely recommend this recipe to everyone!!!
