Apple Crisp Without Oats

This Apple Crisp Without Oats uses sliced sweet-tart apples topped with a buttery all-purpose flour and sugar crumble, baked until golden and bubbly. The topping provides a crumbly texture without traditional oats, allowing for a tender but crisp finish. The dish can be served warm, ideal for comforting dessert or seasonal gatherings, complemented by vanilla ice cream if desired.

Description

The recipe starts with peeling and slicing medium baking apples into 1/4 to 1/2 inch pieces, then tossing them evenly with granulated sugar, cinnamon, and water or apple cider. This mixture is spread in an 8x8 inch glass or ceramic baking dish. The crisp topping is made by combining flour, sugar, fine sea salt, and cubed unsalted butter worked together until small crumbles form. This topping is spread lightly over the apple layer.

The dish is baked at 375°F for 45-50 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown, creating a contrast between soft cooked apples and crunchy topping without oats. After baking, the crisp is allowed to cool slightly before serving.

This apple crisp pairs well with vanilla ice cream and can be stored covered at room temperature on the first day, or refrigerated for longer storage. Reheating in a microwave or oven is possible to restore warmth and texture. Different baking dishes can be used, though the firmness and thickness of the crisp may vary.

Ingredients

Servings

Apple Filling

  • 6-8 apple sliced, around 2.5-3 pounds, medium baking
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup water or apple cider
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Crisp Topping

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt fine sea salt
  • 12 Tablespoons butter room temperature and cubed, unsalted

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 375°F. Peel and slice apples into approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices.
  2. In a large mixing bowl or the baking dish you will be using, toss the apple slices with sugar, water (or juice), and cinnamon. Mix well to coat the slices completely, and spread in an even layer in an 8x8 glass or ceramic baking dish.
  3. In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and butter cubes with a pie blender or two forks, until well combined and small crumbles form. Lightly pat the topping over apples in the baking dish.
  4. Bake the apple crisp for 45-50 minutes, until bubbling and the topping is golden brown. Let sit for 15-20 minutes to cool slightly, then serve warm with vanilla ice cream as desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Choose sweet yet tart baking apples like Jonathan or Honeycrisp to maintain texture and flavor during baking.
  • Store apple crisp covered at room temperature for up to one day or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • Reheat individual servings in the microwave or the whole crisp in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes.
  • Adjust baking dish size as needed; thickness and baking time may vary slightly with different pans.
