Cranberry Apple Crisp
A cranberry apple crisp has all the hallmarks of an extra special fall dessert with juicy apples, tart cranberries, and a cinnamon-y oatmeal pecan crisp topping. This bright combination upstages a plain old apple crisp every time.
Servings: 8 servings
Equipment
- 2 quart baking dish
Ingredients
crisp filling
- 20 ounces peeled and chopped apples, this was about 4 medium-large apples for me. Chop them into approximately 1/2 inch pieces.
- 12 ounces whole fresh cranberries (you can use frozen if you like)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar, or sugar substitute of your choice.
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
crisp topping
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup all purpose flour, For a gluten free option try oat flour, almond flour, or your favorite gf baking mix.
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 3/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- To make the crisp topping, combine all of the topping ingredients in a bowl and combine them together with your fingers until crumbly and all the dry flour has been worked in. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, toss together the chopped apples, cranberries, sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Transfer the fruit to a 2 quart baking dish, making sure to spread out your fruit evenly to the corners of your dish.
- Sprinkle the topping over the fruit, and bake for about 55 minutes. I tented mine with a sheet of aluminum foil for the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent the top from getting too browned. The topping should be golden brown, and the fruit juices should be bubbling throughout.
- Let your crisp rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
