Directions

  1. Scrape the mixture into the buttered baking dish and spread it evenly. Distribute the crumbly topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 1 1/4-1 1/2 hours, until the crisp is browned on top and the juices are bubbling and thickened. (If your apples were a little dry, you may not see any juices toward the end of the baking time; if so, the browned topping is your cue to doneness.) Serve warm or cold. Top with ice cream or frozen yogurt, if desired.
