With juicy apples and tart cranberries nestled beneath a crispy, buttery topping, this dessert is sure to become a fall favorite in your household. And the best part? It’s easy to make and can be whipped up in no time!
To start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish and set aside.
Next, it’s time to get started on the topping. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup of old-fashioned oats, and 1/2 cup of cold butter. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
Now, it’s time to work on the filling. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups of peeled and chopped apples (about 4 medium-sized apples) and 2 cups of fresh or frozen cranberries. Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Mix well to coat the fruit.
Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Not only is this Apple Cranberry Crisp recipe delicious, it’s also a great way to use up any extra apples you may have lying around from your fall apple-picking adventures. Plus, with the addition of cranberries, it’s a nice change of pace from traditional apple crisp recipes.
So the next time you’re in the mood for a cozy, comforting dessert, give this recipe a try. We promise you won’t be disappointed!
