Apple Cranberry Crisp

Prep 20minutes
Cook 45 minutes 




Ingredients

▢4 cups apples (about 4 medium sized apples, peeled, cored and chopped)

▢2 cups cranberries (fresh or frozen)

▢1 cup granulated sugar

▢1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

▢½ cup all-purpose flour

▢½ cup brown sugar (packed)

▢½ cup unsalted butter (melted)

▢1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

▢½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

▢¼ teaspoon salt

To Serve

▢vanilla ice cream

▢whipped cream

Instructions


Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.


In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, cranberries, and granulated sugar. Toss well to coat the fruit evenly with the sugar. Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.


In a separate mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, melted butter, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and the mixture is crumbly.


Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.


Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.


Remove the crisp from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.



Notes

Apple Selection: Choose firm apples like Granny Smith for a tart contrast, or Honeycrisp for a sweeter touch. The key is to use apples that hold their shape well when baked.


Cranberry Tip: If using frozen cranberries, there’s no need to thaw them. This can help maintain the structure of the berries while baking.
