Easy Apple Crisp


I made this easy apple crisp last night after pork chops for dinner. It just comes from pantry ingredients, so it's great when you get the idea in your head that you must have it soon!

Preheat the oven to 375°.

Pour 2 cans apple pie filling into an oval casserole dish. In a separate bowl combine 1 cup flour and 1 cup packed brown sugar.

With a pastry blender, cut in two sticks of very cold butter that you have first cut into smaller cubes. When the mixture resembles small - medium crumbs, stir in 1/2 cup quick cooking oats. I also add in some apple pie spice (or just cinnamon and/or nutmeg). Sprinkle the mixture over the apple pie filling in dish. Bake until bubbling and golden brown on top-- about 35 minutes.

Serve with vanilla ice cream of your choice. Send it over the top with caramel sauce.

(By the way, the original recipe for this is a peach crumble -- i just use it for the topping. It is from The Martha Stewart Cookbook-- Collected Recipes for Everyday. Thank you Martha!)
