Old Fashioned Apple Crisp Recipe
This Old Fashioned Apple Crisp recipe will make for a great family dessert this fall. Apples topped with an oat streusel topping then baked, pure deliciousness. Since this dish requires only a few ingredients, it comes together quite quickly.
Every time Fall rolls around, I get really excited about all the orchard fresh apples that will be available. The apples around these parts are delicious this time of year. 😉 Apples on their own are delicious, of course, but apple desserts are pretty tasty as well! Like my Caramel Apple Dip and today’s Old Fashioned Apple Crisp recipe that I’m going to share!
This apple crisp is one of those simple recipes that can be put together and tossed in the oven in only a few minutes. The wonderful apple and cinnamon layer will have the house smelling scrumptious in no time. While the crunchy streusel makes for the perfect topping.
