Notes
- Make sure you use your favorite apples for this recipe, you want to taste the flavor that you enjoy the most! Since we have a few favorites, we used a combo here--which works SO well!
- Make sure to adjust the amount of sugar based on the type of apples you're using, I've included the range we use.
- The secret ingredient is a cup of milk. When added into the apple mixture, it adds richness, creaminess and a melt in your mouth feel to the dessert. Use ANY type of milk here!
- Feel free to swap the butter for avocado oil or coconut oil for a lighter dessert.
- Add nuts to the topping, orange zest, some cranberries for variations!
- Once baked, the apple crisp needs to cool before serving as it is super hot out of the oven.
- To make ahead, prepare the filling without the milk. Add a teaspoon of lemon juice and freeze the apple mixture separately and the oat crumb mixture separately. You can freeze those for 3 months.
- To Bake: simply add the apple mixture in the baking dish, top with the milk and the frozen crumb mixture. Add 10 minutes of baking time extra.
- To freeze once baked, simply cover the apple crisp recipe once cooled with foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. To serve, simply thaw the dish in the fridge or counter and reheat for 20 minutes at 350 degrees F oven.
- To make this recipe gluten free, use gluten free oats and flour without changing the measurements. You can also flavor the oat topping and apple mixture with orange zest, apple pie spice, add nuts, cranberries, pears, whole cinnamon sticks, and dried ginger.
- Follow the recipe using the crockpot as the baking dish. So add the apples, flavor them, top with the oat crumble and place some paper towels over the oat topping. This prevents the topping from being soggy. Cook on hight for 3.5 hour or on low for 7 hours.
- It's completely personal! Since we're adding the milk, we guarantee our apples will be tender and soft. For this reason we don't peel, however you can still peel it if that's your preference. Also you can cut the apples into slices instead of chunks.
