This apple crisp recipe features two of New England's best ingredients: apples and maple syrup. It's wonderful topped with maple-flavored whipped cream or a little scoop of vanilla ice cream. Or, enjoy the warm, crunchy taste without the adornments (and added calories!).

Serves 6-8 people.

You'll Need:
Two Mixing Bowls
9" x 13" Baking Dish
Aluminum Foil

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 large, peeled, thinly sliced McIntosh apples
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup real New England maple syrup
  • Topping Ingredients:
  • 1 cup uncooked rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons real New England maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract

Preparation:

Mix sliced apples, lemon juice, cinnamon and syrup in a large mixing bowl. Mix topping ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.

Grease a 9" x 13" baking dish, and spread the apple mixture across the bottom of the pan. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until the apples are tender. Spread the topping evenly over the apples and return the pan to the oven. Bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes uncovered at 350 degrees until topping is crisp.

Note: Top with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if you'd like.
