Our household can’t seem to consume enough apples so I had to find something to do with the 8 apples in our fruit bowl and another pending fruit delivery. So once again I made a crisp, however this time I remembered to use oatmeal. I liked this one better then the last but it wasn’t entirely perfect. Certainly good, but not quite as good as the one my old roomate used to make. It also tasted better the next day when the apples were all soft. I used Elise’s recipe from Simply Recipes. However I would recommend increasing the cooking time by ten minutes. I have repeated it below with the adjusted time increase.
(serves 2-4)
7 tart apples, peeled, cored and sliced
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a mixing bowl, combine apples, lemon juice, and vanilla. Toss to combine.
Layer sliced apples in a 9 x 12 inch baking pan. Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and oatmeal in the bowl. Cut in butter. Sprinkle sugar mixture over apples. Bake 55-60 minutes or until topping looks crunchy and apples are tender.

Hi!
This looks yummy! I wouldn’t even need a dish – just a fork.
