  • Toss the apples with sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg before adding them to the baking dish. This will help to flavor the apples and prevent them from becoming too dry.
  • Use a combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar for the topping. The brown sugar will add a rich, molasses flavor to the crisp, while the granulated sugar will help to create a crispy topping.
