A sweet and tart dessert that disappears at every dining table. It is a fun twist on apple cobbler! Goes great with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping! Wonderful hot or cold.

Brought this to a family dinner and I ended up not letting anyone eat it after I actually tried it. Nothing worse than crunching on granules of sugar. I may try it again but with much less sugar next time. It seemed like even though I spent ALOT of time mixing the butter into the dry mix the sugar just didn't mix in. I also think I baked it too long (30 mins) because the apples turned to complete mush. Read More

I had 2 Granny Smith and 1 Golden Delicious apples to do something with and found this recipe. I wish an actual measurement in cups was used for the apples because they can vary widely in size. Mine were softball sized. I left the peel on. I was excited to try this recipe as apple crisp is DH's favorite dessert. He wasn't overly impressed. I think the main complaint was that there was no liquid or "goop" in the bottom. Overall this is very dry. We'll finish this batch but I doubt that I'll make it again. Read More
