Ingredients

Filling

  • 3 cups peeled cored, and sliced apples
  • 1 cup cranberries fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Crisp ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1/2 cup pecan halves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9-inch by 9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or butter.
  • Toss apples and cranberries with the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg.
  • Layer the mixture in the bottom of the baking dish.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated and brown sugars, oats, and flour.
  • Mix in butter until crumbly.
  • Layer over the fruit in the baking dish and arrange pecans on top.
  • Bake in the center of the oven for about 40 minutes, until golden on top and the filling is juicy.

Notes

  • You can mix chopped pecans into the crisp topping, but I like the way adding them on top toasts them. So delicious!
  • Many crisp and crumble recipes specify using cold butter, but I find that hard to mix in, and the end crisp is not different. On the other hand, using softened butter changes the texture a lot to be less crumbly.
  • If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container or cover them with plastic wrap and refrigerate them.
