My Favorite Fall Treat!

Well, it is still 85-90 degrees in lovely Florida but, I am determined to get into the fall spirit!

This past weekend, we made 'Grammie Joyce's Famous Apple Crisp' 
This is my absolute favorite y'all! 

(again, I am HORRIBLE at taking pictures so, there is no 'after' picture but, trust me, it is to die for!) 

What you will need for the apple mixture:
9x13 Greased baking dish
8-10 peeled apples
1 1/2 cups of flour
3/4 cup melted butter
3/4 cup of white sugar
1/4 cup of light brown sugar
1 Tablespoon of cinnamon
1/2 Tablespoon of nutmeg

What you will need for the crisp topping:
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of white sugar
1/2 cup of melted butter (cooled) 

Steps:
1. preheat oven to 350* and grease the 9x13 baking dish
2. wash and peel your apples. cut into bite sized chunks-no need to be precise. 

3. in a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugars, butter, and spices. mix well until fully combined then gently fold in apples until they are completely covered. dump into the prepared baking dish and make sure it is as even as possible. 
  

4. prepare the crumb topping by combining the flour, sugar, and butter with a fork until it forms a crumbly consistency. 
5. evenly spread out the crumb topping over the apple mixture. Top with extra cinnamon if you'd like. 

6. pop this baby in the oven at 350* for 45 minutes or until the top is a nice golden brown. 

serve warm with ice cream and whipped cream or, if you're feeling extra 'betty crocker-ish', make a homemade caramel sauce to top it off! 

Enjoy!
