Roll up your sleeves for this one — you get to put your hands to work “squishing” the topping. Many apple crisp recipes call for a rolled oats topping, but this recipe’s topping is made of sugar, flour and butter — and the result is amazing!

Ingredients

6 apples I use Fuji — definitely use baking apples, peeled and sliced
1 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup flour
1/3 cup butter softened

Instructions

Peel and slice the apples and fill a buttered dish (I used an 8x8)
Mix 1/2 cup sugar with 1 tsp cinnamon and sprinkle over apples.
Mix 1/2 cup sugar with 3/4 cup flour, and combine with 1/3 cup softened butter. Squish around until consistency is like Grape Nuts. Sprinkle over the top of the apples.
Bake at 400 degrees F for 40 minutes.
