Jump to Recipe
Fall is back baby!! The Fall drinks are back at Starbucks and school is back in session… and I’m ready to start watching Gilmore Girls again.
So, Let’s make the best dang apple crisp you’ve ever had! I love keeping it simple: Just chop those apples, peel and all, and toss ’em in the dish.
I’ve tried dozens of recipes and I’ve perfected this recipe to absolute perfection! The secret? That cookie-ish oatmeal topping! Even if you’re not a huge oatmeal fan, this is a must-try. It’s so cinnamon-y and delicious, you’ll love it.
This bubbly Apple Crisp is a fall favorite dessert not to be missed!
