Ultimate Apple Crisp
The Ultimate Apple Crisp is a baked dessert featuring thinly sliced Fuji or Granny Smith apples tossed with orange juice, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, topped with a crumbly mixture of flour, oats, sugars, salt, and cold butter. Baking creates a golden brown crust with a tender, spiced apple filling.
