 October 2020 Recipes: Sheet Pan Apple Crisp 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, divided, plus more for baking sheet

  • 8 apples (such as Gala), peeled, cored, and sliced (11 cups)

  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)

  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar, divided

  • ¾ tsp kosher salt, divided

  • ¾ tsp cinnamon pdr

  • ½ tsp cardamom pdr (optional)

    Vanilla ice cream to serve optional

     

      Preparations

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with butter. Microwave 4 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl on high until melted, 30 to 45 seconds. (Alternatively, melt butter in a saucepan over low.)

    Toss together apples and lemon juice on prepared baking sheet; drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle with ½ cup sugar and ¼ teaspoon salt and toss until well combined and thoroughly coated. Spread mixture in an even layer.

    Cut remaining 12 tablespoons butter into ½-inch pieces. Toss together oats, flour, cinnamon, cardamom, and remaining ½ cup sugar and ½ teaspoon salt in a large bowl until well combine. 

    Add butter pieces; using your fingertips, rub butter into oat mixture until moist clumps form and no dry bits of flour remain. Scatter evenly over apples on baking sheet.

    Bake until topping is golden and crisp, 55 to 60 minutes. Let cool for at least 10 minutes. Scoop and serve with ice cream, if desired.

1 cup all-purpose flour

⅓ cup white granulated sugar

¾ cup walnuts, roughly chopped

4 ounces unsalted butter, melted

To Make the Crumble Topping: To a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour,white granulated sugar, chopped walnuts and melted butter. Using a spoon, mix the mixture until clumpy and everything is coated in butter. Pour the crumble atop the filling and spread it out evenly. Transfer it to the oven to bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the crumble is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
