Apple Oatmeal Crisp Recipe

Since there were a few ppl saying this was a dry recipe, when I made it I used a little less flour and a little less oatmeal. YOU DEFINATELY DO NOT need 1/2 cup sugar! I didn't even use 1/2 cup and it was a little too sweet, but when I had the topping on I dotted it with a T of butter and baked as directed. This was juicy, bubbly, and SO DELICIOUS! I will DEFINITELY be using this as my Apple Oatmeal Crisp recipe from now on!

This recipe is wonderful. I made this for a recent family reunion. Instead of sprinkling the cinnamon and sugar on the top of the apples in the pan. I just put the apples and the cinn/sugar mixture together in a ziploc bag and coated all the apple pieces. Thanks for sharing such a great recipe.

I made right by the recipe except that I might have had a little more apple. I did slice my apples rather than cut them into chunks. Agree with others. A little too sweet. I would definitely not put sugar in the apples or if you do, put very little. I think you could also cut down on the brown sugar in the topping by a fourth cup or so. For those who said it was dry, not at all! I did have to cook 10 minutes longer to get the apples cooked down to the juiciness they needed. I would make again with the above adjustments and definitely put walnuts in this time and/or raisins. Perfectly nice the way it is but needs some ice cream or something to cut the sweetness. Also, you need to really measure your flour properly. If you pack it down, it won't be the proper measurement and your product will end up dry. Hope this helps!

I doubled the apples - used a larger pan, and cut the oat topping amounts in half. I used 1/2 cup monk fruit sugar instead of white sugar for the apples and cinnamon. I added 1/2 tsp cardamom, 1/2 cup Truvia brown sugar [instead of reg. brown sugar] & 1/2 tsp vanilla to the oat topping mixture. I didn’t put any oat mixture on the bottom of my pan. I used about 1/3 cup apple juice poured around the edges, to insure that my crisp stayed moist. I cooked for about an hour. Served with vanilla bean ice cream. Yummy!

I liked it and thought it was good. I added about four cups of apples because I wanted more apples in mine. I also used an electric mixer to mix my "dry" ingredients. Next time, I want to mix the flour, brown sugar, and butter in the mixer and then fluff in the oatmeal or even add an extra cup of oatmeal to give the crisp a meatier oaty taste.

This was good, but a little dry. I made a syrup using butter brown sugar an a little white sugar, and added some cinnamon. Mad it in microwave. Poured the syrup over top and it made it just right!

This is my go to recipe with a few changes. I use 1/4 c of sugar and the same amount of cinnamon for the cinnamon sugar mix. I find that using the full 1/2 c of white sugar makes it too sweet. As far as the dryness, the recipe as is, is too dry for my taste, to combat this, after washing the apples, I don't dry the apples and I also sprinkle 1-2 tabs of water on top of the apples after I put the first layer of crumple and the apples down. This makes for a gooey bottom that I love have fallen in love with.

This recipe is Missing Two Key Ingredients Salt & Lemon Juice! Add a nice pinch of salt to streusel mixture, and Before adding the topping….mix a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice in with the cut apples, …. Cut the white sugar out, no need for it at all, use Four Cups of Apples, and in addition to the melted butter already mixed in the streusel, dot the top generously with butter pats, and you’ll have something absolutely delicious. :) something Delicious :) You’re Welcome!

I did make a couple changes. Too much brown sugar, cut it by half. Topping in apples too sweet, cut that in half also. Added, along with cinnamon, 1tsp pumpkin pie spice. Next time I will add some chopped walnuts to topping. 🥰

This went over really well at my dinner party! Based on reviews, the only change I made was to cut the sugar in the apple mixture to 1/4 cup. Next time I make it, I will likely cut the brown sugar to 3/4 of a cup as well. I will also add ~ 50% more apples. In reviews, some people suggest adding lemon: I'm a bit of a purest and think you get much better taste by using a really tart apple variety. My guests really liked the "topping" being on both the bottom and the top. I made this the day before, but baked it a couple hours before people came over, so the kitchen was infused with the smell of it. They immediately commented on how good the kitchen smelled as they walked in :) They all also took big helpings, finished it all and asked for the recipe - I think they liked it :)

This was absolutely excellent and I'm going to make it again. Based on the reviews etc. I made a few changes which I think helped but it was probably excellent without them. 1. Cut both sugars by about a third or a quarter 2. Add a little salt to both the apples and the crumble mixture 3. Add about a tablespoon of cornstarch to the filling 4. Use five cups of apples 5. Had about a quarter of a lemon's worth of lemon juice to the filling

I don’t know what I did wrong but it was too dry and the apples weren’t soft enough next time I make it I’ll use less flour

This is chef energy unlocked.

This is a perfect recipe. It's so easy to put together and just bake!

I make a double batch each time. I added double cinnamon as we love it, & 1/2 c. less white sugar instead of 1 c. , I also kept the bottom layer very thin. I crumble the rest on top. My granddaughter says it is the best she's ever had and requests it now for all family gatherings.

Way too much streusel for just 3 cups of apples. I would cut the streusel amounts in half and skip placing half of it in bottom of pan before apples. Also, because it's already so sweet, I wouldn't sprinkle sugar and cinnamon mixture on apples before streusel. Instead, I would add a teaspoon of cinnamon to streusel ingredients. Also, it turned out very dry--I would add some lemon juice and a couple tablespoons of water to apples.

Can’t believe how good this turned out.

I left out the white sugar and added a bit more butter. Oh my goodness! Absolutely delicious.

Delicious just as it's written. Planning on having this at our spring branding.

Fantastic recipe, you will not be disppointed.
