does it have any fruit besides apples? -
Can I use normal apples? -
Are rolled oats "quick" oats or just "old fashioned" oats (or doesn't it matter)? Seems Quaker Oats makes both!

this was DELICIOUS! we made it with double the amount of apples, and triple the topping, but it was still tasty! we also added a pinch of allspice, which worked out really well. just make sure that when mixing the topping ingredients to fully and completely mix them, or else the topping'll turn out flour-y and not as tasty :D -
Fabulous crunchy topping!! I doubled the recipe using a 9X13 pan, worked perfectly. I also added approx 1 cup of toasted walnuts to the topping! <br/>This is now going to be our GO TO recipe for fresh fruit crisps. Thank you for sharing! -
Wow wow wow!!! I also doubled this recipe and put it in a 9x13pan. At first it seemed like too much "crisp" but in the end it was great. I did have to grate some frozen butter on top of the whole dish midway through cooking though because the crumble was dry and the butter did not distribute evenly. I sprinkled some cinnamon on top of the apples before putting the crisp on as well. I thought it was really good warm out of the oven, but it was ten times better cold out of the fridge the next day. Delicious and easy.

Yummy! I did tweak it a little which is why I gave it a four instead of a five. First I knew we'd need a bigger batch since my family and I are gluttons so I doubled the apple portion so it would fill a 9x13 size pan. I also tossed the apples in a little vanilla and white sugar. We love the apple crisp topping so I tripled that. I added a couple dashes of salt to the topping and ended up adding two sticks of butter. It came out picture perfect. It tasted just like I wanted it too and my family loved it. Vanilla ice cream on top is a must of course ;) -
Sorry, but nutmeg was over powering and all I could taste.

I added about 1/4 tsp ground ginger to the mix and once the crumble was on the apples I poured some extra melted butter (and 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup) over top.

Just add 'Masala chai' to the mix -
For the apple filling, I sprinkled about 1 1/2 Tbl flour, 1/2 tsp each nutmeg and cinnamon and a dash or 2 of salt and tossed it all together. -
Doubled it because I had 7 apples. I also used 1 stick of butter.

We loved it. I made some minor changes, I did cube the apples instead of slicing them, omitted the nutmeg (I don't like it) and added 1/c coarsely chopped pecans.
