I think it is official – I have written more blog posts for Vegan Mofo then my Vegan husband (oh, you haven’t caught on yet?  I’m not vegan!  Not even vegetarian – but I hope that doesn’t deter you from reading.).

Apple Crisp

Apple Crisp

Today we honor the humble Apple Crisp.  Why it is humble, I don’t know, because it FREAKING ROCKS!  Simple ingredients, easy to make and nearly fool proof.  This is one of the few times I will post a recipe (from memory).  And no, it is not my recipe, it is from my favoritest cookbook ever – the Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book (that for some reason Sat and I call the “Betty”)

Apple Crisp With Ice Cream

Apple Crisp With Ice Cream

Humble Apple Crisp
Lots of apples, peeled, seeded, and sliced thin
2-4 tablespoons of granulated sugar
Some lemon juice to prevent discoloration (I dilute with water to make it go farther)

1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c rolled oats
1/2 c flour
some cinnamon (teaspoon-ish?)
1/4 c. softened margarine

Prepare apples and put in lemon juice water mixture until completed.  Rinse apples and place in baking dish of choice (I used a glass pie pan).  Stir in granulated sugar.  Combine the rest of the “dry” ingredients in a medium bowl.  Cut in butter until mixture is “crumbly”.  Spread mixture over top of apples.  Bake at 375 for 20-30 minutes.  Serve with really good ice cream.
