Apple Crisp

I sent my FL brother a surprise . . . a 1/2 bushel of NY apples . . . he says you can't get good apples in FL!  He has been enjoying them immensely!  And here is his recipe for apple crisp!  He has made it twice . . . now I think I will try it!

Apple Filling

6-8 medium to large apples, peeled, cored and sliced (Northern Spies are the best!)

1 cup white sugar

1 tsp flour

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup water combined with 3TBSP Lemon Juice

Crumble Topping 

1 cup quick-cooking oats

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup butter, melted

Place the sliced apples in a large bowl.  Mix the white sugar, 1 tablespoon flour and cinnamon together and stir. Combined apples with sugar mixture. Pour mixture into a 9x13 inch pan. Pour water/lemon juice evenly over all.

Combine the oats, 1 cup flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and melted butter together. Crumble evenly over the apple mixture.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.

If you like more topping like I do you and make 1 1/2 times the crumble ingredients and use it all!!!
