I'm really enjoying the mini-harvest of apples we got from Phil and Lois's yard. Last week it was apple pie, this week apple crisp. I'm sometimes not a huge fan of apple crisp, and I was fully planning to turn these into applesauce, but at the last minute decided to err on the side of more fat and more crunch. Can you really blame me?
The current issue (October) of Everyday Food has both recipes for apple sauce and apple crisp. This crisp really stands up to its name--it's crisp, not at all soggy, and that is why I really like this one. Even leftover in my lunch today it was crisp!
Apple Crisp3/4 c. all purpose flour
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/2 t. salt
1/2 c. plus 2 T granulated sugar
1 stick butter, cut into small cubes

That looks incredibly delicous.
Looks great! It's finally cooled off here and I can't wait to do some apple baking. Think I'll have to try this recipe.
