Ingredients

  • 3 Apples (Granny Smith are a good choice)
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 2 tablespoons Cinnamon
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • A pinch of Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Cinnamon divided
  • 1/3 cup Butter melted, divided
  • 1 Egg

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Peel the apples, if you like. They are fine peeled or unpeeled.
  • Core the apples. Chop into small cubes. Apple chunks should be no smaller than 1 inch (or they will get too mushy when cooking).
  • Place apples into a large bowl.
  • Add brown sugar, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Toss until apples are well-coated.
  • Pour apple mixture into an oven-safe 8 1/2 x 12-inch casserole dish.
  • In a small bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  • Add egg and about 1/2 of the butter.
  • Spread mixture evenly over top of apples.
  • Sprinkle remainder of the butter on top of the crisp.
  • Cover dish with foil.
  • Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes, or a bit more until deep golden brown and bubbling.
