Easy Apple Crisp is so simple to make and one of the most loved desserts for any night of the week. Cinnamon and sugar apples baked with a crunchy brown sugar and oat crumble topping. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or homemade whipped cream for something extra special.
Easy Apple Crisp
This easy dessert is a slight variation on my easy blackberry crisp. I doubled the brown sugar and oat topping because let's face it, the crispy topping is irresistible! If you are looking for something super quick, these Air Fryer Churro Apple Pie Bombs are the best dessert to make in under 30 minutes.
How to Make Easy Apple Crisp:
- Peel and core apples. Cut into bite- sized pieces or slices, which ever you prefer. Place in a pie plate or baking dish. Top with lemon juice.
- Mix brown sugar, cornstarch and ground cinnamon together. Pour over apples and mix together.
- In a large bowl combine flour, oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon and kosher salt together.
- Cut in 1 stick of butter until totally combined.
- Sprinkle over apple mixture.
- Place pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 40-50 minutes or until top is lightly browned and apples are tender. The baking sheet will catch any spills if the apple filling bubbles over.
Fruit crisp is one of my favorite desserts because it's so easy to make. No pie crust to roll out and you can make it with any fruit you have on hand to make a peach crisp or cherries are great too. It's always a family favorite with the crispy crumb topping.
- Serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.
This easy crisp is simple enough to make for a weeknight but totally delicious enough for entertaining.
What kind of apples are best for apple crisp?

I love apple crisp. In fact, I would much rather have it instead of cake or pie.
I have added Butterscotch before in with the apples & have also added chopped up pears and / or dried cranberries.
It's just me & hubby so I normally make in individual serving bowls

When do you add the brown sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon mixture? Do you put it over the apples or do you add it to the oat mixture? Thank you in advance.
Milisa
Hi Debbie,
To the apples, I've updated the recipe, thanks for letting me know it was missing.

Aloha, my question is the same as Debbie’s above. Seems like #4 should end with, “toss mixture with apples in baking pan”.
It does look like a simple and sweet yummy recipe— mahalo!

Hi, Do you see any reason NOT to make this inn individual large ramekins? takin dinner (XMAS) to the in-laws.
Milisa
Hi Brenda,
I am sure it would work just fine. You might need to chop the apples to make them fit better. Hope you enjoy it!
