Apples With Crunchy Topping

"This is DH's favorite apple (or other fruit) crisp. I’ve made it with pears, peaches, apricots, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and combinations. It is easy, fast, and makes great leftovers. It is from the Betty Crocker 1954 Cookbook."

  1. My DH and I both thought this recipe was a keeper! It was quick and easy... very simple, but YUMMY! I was out of quick cooking oats, so I substituted with two packets of instant apple & cinnamon oatmeal. It was very good. We served it warm with french vanilla ice cream. YUM!
     
  2. I have not tried this recipe. My copy I got from a community cookbook. The recipe is slightly different. It calls for 4-5 medium apples, and no cinnamon. The rest is the same. Thanks for posting. Christine (internetnut)
     
  3. Great simple recipe for a fruit crumble. I love the flavour of cinnamon and apples, so I knew I'd really enjoy this. My crunch mixture was very moist and not very crumbly with the ingredients as listed, but I just patted it into a large circle to cover the apples and it worked great. The only thing I'd change is to reduce the amount of brown sugar a little as the topping was a bit on the sweet side for my taste, or maybe just use some tarter apples next time. Great recipe, thanks for sharing.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I've been cooking for over 45 years now. First I made Jello pudding. Next I learned how to make cream sauce. I still like creamed tuna over toast, rice or mashed potatoes. Many years ago I found a greeting card that said "When I retire I'm going to move to a big house in the country and live with a lot of cats...I've already got a start on the cats." I bought the store's entire stock and sent them to EVERYBODY! Well, now I'm retired, I live in a regular sized house in the country (on about 80 acres), I have a bunch of cats and feed a lot of other critters. There's a mini pig (she's still pretty big),a lop-eared rabbit, a vole who moved in under the stove, a huge flock of chickens, loads of songbirds, an opossum behind the barn(who sneaks in to eat), herons in the spring, pacific tree frogs, and the occasional coyote. We're even in the territory of a couple of golden eagles who stop by a couple of times a year. That's a chicken on my shoulder. JC (Junior Chicken). How he ended up as an indoor chicken is a long, complicated story. JC never learned to crow right. Maybe it was being deprived of role models in his formative months.
