Deep Dish Apple Crisp

Deep Dish Apple Crisp

I love apple pies, but I don’t always have the time to bake a pie crust. After some experimenting, I perfected this Deep Dish Apple Crisp recipe as a quicker alternative. It’s a warm, comforting dessert that’s easy to make and pairs perfectly with ice cream. My husband was eager to dig in, so much so that I couldn’t even snap a photo before he dove in!

Ingredients:

4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced (enough to line the bottom of an 8-inch deep dish pie plate)

2 eggs

1 cup sugar (reserve ¼ cup to mix with 1 tsp cinnamon)

2 tablespoons melted butter (or margarine)

1 cup white flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Peel and slice the apples, then arrange them to cover the bottom of an 8-inch pie dish.

In a small bowl, combine the reserved ¼ cup of sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and sprinkle it evenly over the apples.

In a separate bowl, mix together the remaining sugar, eggs, melted butter, flour, baking soda, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Using a spoon, carefully spread the topping mixture over the apples.

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and enjoy!
