Fall Apple Crisp Recipe

Like the smell of cinnamon-spiced apples baking on a crisp autumn day? This easy Apple Crisp recipe is the perfect way to celebrate the season—sweet, comforting, and guaranteed to make your kitchen smell like fall in a jar!

I’m excited for apple season. This time of year, I love that I can get local apples from our grocery stores and Markets. Goldsmith’s, Grandma Lambe’s, The Farmers Pantry, I like to get a few varieties and then cozy up in the kitchen to get these fresh beauties into some baking. One of my fall favourite’s? A warm apple crisp! The smell of cinnamon and baked apples wafting through the house, the first scoop straight from the oven, it really is comfort in a dish.

I’ve been making this recipe for years, and it’s always a hit with friends and family. Today, I’m sharing it with you so you can enjoy a little slice of fall at home. Whether you’re baking for a weekend treat, a gathering, or just for yourself (no judgment here!), it’s simple, delicious, and captures everything I love about this season.

Let’s get to it 😊

Ingredients

Filling:

5 cups fresh apples, sliced
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping:

1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup old fashioned oats
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a deep dish pie plate or large baking dish with butter or cooking spray and set aside.

Combine the sliced apples with the sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and mix until all of the apples are evenly coated. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

In a separate medium size bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until well coated and crumbly. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top of the apples.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes until fruit is soft and the topping is golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream on top. Enjoy!
