Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of tart and sweet apples. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Braeburn, and Pink Lady.
  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor than frozen cranberries. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overmix the topping: The topping should be crumbly, not doughy. If you overmix it, it will be tough.
  • Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will take about 30-35 minutes.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This will make it even more delicious!

Conclusion:

Apple cranberry crisp is a classic fall dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. It's the perfect way to use up all those fresh apples and cranberries that are in season. With its sweet and tart flavor, and its crispy topping, this crisp is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
