Tips:

  • Use fresh apricots: Fresh apricots are the best choice for this recipe, as they have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh apricots, you can use frozen apricots, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Add a little spice: A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add a warm, cozy flavor to the crisp. You can also add a teaspoon of grated orange zest for a citrusy kick.
  • Don't overmix the topping: The topping should be crumbly, not smooth. If you overmix it, it will be tough.
  • Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the crisp is cooked through.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This will make the crisp even more delicious!

Conclusion:

This tropical apricot crisp is a delicious and easy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with fresh apricots, a sweet and crunchy topping, and a hint of warm spice. The crisp is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
