Quick Apple Crisp

Years ago, our women's club was holding a bake sale after all the Masses at our church. Since it was held in the fall, we called it an "Applefest."

It certainly was a success, but we seemed to be running out of apple goodies before our sale was due to end. I took to running home and making this apple crisp dessert over and over so we would have at least a good representation of baked goods when the next Mass concluded. This proved to be a truly easy apple crisp recipe.

To speed things up, I separated the apple crisp ingredients into disposable, foil pie tins. That way the baking time was cut way down. Talk about "hot from the oven." I needed to wear my oven mitts to move them from one place to another.

My point is that this dessert can be put together and ready for the sale, or for the table in our present circumstances, in no time at all. While it bakes, you're free to whip up dinner. And to think this is really just a simple apple crisp recipe.

Ingredients

5 apples, peeled and cut into slices

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 cup water

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 cup butter

1 cup sugar

3/4 cup flour

Method

• Preheat oven to 350°F and butter an 8-inch pan or dish.

• Put your sliced apples in the bottom of the pan or dish.

• Mix together the spices, lemon juice and water in a separate bowl and pour over the sliced apples.

• In another bowl, incorporate the butter, sugar and flour until crumbly. I used a pastry blender for this task.

• This makes quite a bit of topping, so make sure it is spread evenly on top of the apples.

• Bake for 55 minutes to an hour or until top is golden brown and apples are tender.
