5 lbs of McIntosh or Macooun Apples
Grated zest of 1 orange
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 tbls – fresh squeezed orange juice
2 tbls – fresh squeezed lemon juice
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tsp – ground cinnamon
1 tps – ground nutmeg
Topping
1.5 cups – all purpose flour
¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
½ tsp kosher salt
1-cup oatmeal
½ lb – cold unsalted butter, diced
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, butter a 9X14-baking dish
Peel, core and cut apples in large wedges. Combine the apples with the zests, juices, sugar and spices. Pour into dish.
To make topping, combine flour, sugars, salt, oatmeal and cold butter in the bowl of an electric mixer and paddle attachment (I’ve done this in a bowl with my fingers – works too). When butter is the size of peas scatter evenly over apples.
Place the crisp on a sheet pan and bake for an hour or until to the top is brown and the apples bubbly.
Serve warm with fresh whipped cream or softened vanilla ice cream
