Car troubles caused yesterday's plans to take a different direction, so I am a 'day late and dollar short', as they say, in posting the recipe that I like for apple crisp.I love making crisps because they are not fussy. In fact, you don't really need a recipe because, like soups, stews, stir-fries, etc., making a crisp is a process:
Core and slice apples and put in a greased or buttered pan
Sprinkle brown sugar, maple sugar, or drizzle maple syrup or honey over apples (but not all of them..LOL)
Add a small amount of liquid, such as apple juice, cider or orange juice
Dot with a small amount of butter
Sprinkle your favorite spice mix on top, such a apple pie spice or simply cinnamon and nutmeg
Make a topping by cutting oatmeal into a stick of butter or margarine
Add spices and/or sweetener to the mix
Put mix on top of apples and bake in a moderate oven until apples are tender, in my oven it takes about 45 minutes.
Here is a detailed recipe from All Recipes, a website that I refer to often.

This same process works for peaches, pears, any fruit, really. I also use this recipe when our pears are ripe http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Apple-Cranberry-and-Pear-Crisp/Detail.aspx
