GINGERSNAP APPLE CRISP WITH CREAM CHEESE AND WALNUTS



Gingersnap Apple Crisp with Cream Cheese and Walnuts image

Crisps are far easier to make than pies, but just as flavorful. Macerating the apples in sugar overnight helps them keep some of their crispness in the oven and concentrates their flavor. Toasted walnuts and gooey cream cheese add an element of surprise, and an easy crust made from fall's favorite cookie will make your guests wonder why they ever bothered with pie at all.

Time 9h

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 large baking apples, such as Granny Smiths
1/3 cup sugar
Butter, for buttering baking dish
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts, toasted
1/4 cup maple syrup
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, cut into cubes
2 cups crushed gingersnap cookies
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
Ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • For the crisp: Peel and core the apples. Roughly chop into 1-inch chunks and toss with the sugar in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-9-inch or 2-quart baking dish.
  • Drain the apples from their liquid and return the apples to the bowl. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, cloves and ginger and toss well. Using a rubber spatula, mix in the walnuts, maple syrup and half the cream cheese. Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish, then dot the mixture with the remaining cream cheese.
  • For the topping: Mix together the crushed gingersnaps, oats, sugar and melted butter. Spread the topping evenly across the crisp and bake until bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature with ice cream.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a variety of apples. A mix of tart and sweet apples will create a delicious and balanced filling.
  • If you don't have gingersnaps, you can use another type of cookie, such as graham crackers or vanilla wafers.
  • To make the crisp ahead of time, assemble the dish and then cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, let the crisp sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Apple gingersnap crisp is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a hit. The combination of sweet apples, spicy gingersnaps, and a crunchy oat topping is irresistible. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover apples. So next time you have a craving for something sweet, give this apple gingersnap crisp a try. You won't be disappointed!
