Since this is my last Michigan fall, I have been indulging in all my favorite fall recipes. The last few weekends I have been busy in the kitchen making all of my favorite fall baked goods. Last weekend, Kevin was home from training for a visit. I wanted to be a good wife and spoil him with a delicious dinner, followed by a yummy homemade fall dessert.
Kevin has always liked my recipe for apple crisp. He calls it “apple chunks”. My mom always made apple crisp as a treat in the fall. The smell of baked apples and cinnamon would fill the house with such delicious autumn sent. I love to make this recipe! It’s similar to an apple pie but much easier to make and less expensive. The ingredients are simple and most likely, you have most of them in your pantry already.
I started out with finding a great sale at the grocery store on locally grown Michigan apples. They were only $.59 per pound. You really can’t beat that price! I didn’t need to buy anything else, because I already had the rest of the ingredients in my baking supplies at home.
My favorite recipe for apple crisp is from my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook. It’s the same way that my mom made it as a kid. You should definitely give it a try. It’s the perfect fall treat!
