Caramel Apple Crisp
I have been on a quest for panko bread crumbs for a while and couldn’t find them. In a last few weeks they became available at my local grocery store and I received an offer to review the new Progresso Lemon Pepper Panko Bread Crumbs. So this week I will be featuring recipes with Progresso Bread Crumbs and a super giveaway (stay tuned!). I never thought about using panko in dessert, but let me tell you this is the best apple crisp I’ve ever had. The panko makes it so crisp and crunchy, I am talking complete deliciousness! Progresso has teamed up with Michael Chiarello with signature recipes that you can find on their site. I found this recipe there and just changed it ever so slightly with caramel syrup instead of sauce, because it was what I had on hand. There are quite a few signature recipes that all sound amazing. This would be a great addition to your holiday menu, but it is quick and easy enough for a weeknight dessert or for the occasional surprise guests. I have made this twice this week, it’s that good! I was also thinking about making individual apple pies for Thanksgiving, using this topping.
