Equipment

  • 1 9x13 Baking Dish
  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Measuring Cup Set
  • 1 Rubber Spatula

Method
 

Streusel Topping
  1. Start by adding the butter to a medium saucepan over medium heat and brown the butter until it foams and amber bits form on the bottom of the pan. Let the butter cool for 20 minutes.
  2. In a bowl combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt with a fork.
  3. Pour the brown butter over the other ingredients and combine.
  4. Set the streusel topping aside and prepare the apple filling.
Apple Filling
  1. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit then peel and slice the apples.
  2. In a 9x13 baking dish add sliced apples and toss them in the juice of one lemon.
  3. Then sprinkle in the salt, brown sugar and heavy cream and toss the apples until coated evenly.
  4. Grab the streusel and crumble it over the top of the apples trying to cover them as much as possible.
  5. Throw the apple crisp into the preheated oven at 350 F for 40-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and the sauce is thick and bubbly.
  6. Cool the apples crisp about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  8. Enjoy!
