Apple Crisp

Last night I threw together an apple crisp for Phil and I. This is a small batch recipe, I used two individual casserole dishes to bake the crisp. Here is what you'll need....

4 Macintosh apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp grated fresh nutmeg
2 tbls brown sugar plus 1 tsp for topping
2 tbls white sugar
2 tbls apple cider
2 tbls cornstarch
1 cup rolled oats
2 tbls unsalted butter, melted
pinch salt

In a mixing bowl toss the sliced apples with the cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, brown and white sugar. Ensure all apples are coated. Place into the two casserole dishes. Mix the apple cider and cornstarch together and divide between the two dishes, pouring it over the apples. Mix the oats, the rest of the brown sugar, the melted butter and a pinch of salt together and top each dish with this. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes. The tope will get golden and the crisp will bubble. Sometimes I add dried cranberries, golden raisins to this or I mix pears in with the apples. It's a simple apple crisp recipe, that has a delicious outcome.
