Tips:

Use a variety of apples. This will give your crisp a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
Don't overcook the apples. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
Use fresh cranberries. Frozen cranberries can be used, but they will not have the same tart flavor.
Make sure the topping is evenly distributed. This will help it cook evenly.
Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
