Apple Crisp (with a Cranberry Variation)
Ingredients
- 4 cup sliced apples (or 3 cups of apples and one of cranberries)
- 1 cup sugar (maple sugar is great if you can get it)
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
Put apples (and cranberries if you're using them) into a buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with salt. Mix sugar, flour and butter until crumbly (I do this in a food processor). Spread over the apples. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes in preheated 357 degree oven. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream. This smells great while it's baking, and it's delicious! It's one of our family favorites. Note: I usually give the cranberries a quick chopping in the food processor but it also works to use them whole. Depending on the quantity I need I feel free to add more apples and cranberries and increase the amounts of the other ingredients proportionately.
