In a medium size bowl mix graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and butter with a spoon (slowly add the butter and evenly distribute Some people have found the crust recipe to work perfect, while some others found the 12 tablespoons of butter was way to much and the butter started to pool - you may want to start by using 1/2 C butter (1 stick vs. 1 1/2 sticks, or 12 T) Melt the butter and add slowly to the crumbs, a little bit at a time, making sure it's not too wet. You can always add more or save the leftover butter for later. You want a soft dough that sticks together slightly when you try to form a ball, not a wet dough. 5.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your apple crisp bites a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • Peel and core your apples before slicing them. This will make them easier to eat, and it will also help to prevent them from browning.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice your apples. This will help to ensure that they are evenly sliced, which will help them to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish. If you overcrowd the baking dish, the apple crisp bites will not cook evenly. Leave some space between each bite so that they can cook through.
  • Bake the apple crisp bites until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through and that they have a nice, crispy texture.
  • Serve the apple crisp bites warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream. This will make them even more delicious!
