My First Stab At This

I wanted to cook this past weekend.  I wanted to make something sweet, easy, and it had to contain apples. (I had a bunch of frozen apples that I wanted to use up.)  So I decided I would make an apple crisp.

I don’t have a recipe for apple crisp.  And I was too lazy to go upstairs and look for one on the Internet.  I thought, I don’t need no stinkin’ recipe! I’ll just make one up.

It turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. (The apples were a little mushy, but they were getting mushy before I froze them.  Which was the whole reason I froze them in the first place!)  The recipe follows; however, I didn’t measure a darn thing when I was making it!  I just literally threw this together.

Felia’s Homemade Apple Crisp

• 3 apples, cored and chopped
• 1  Tbls. cinnamon + 2 Tbl. cinnamon
• 3 Tbls. brown sugar + 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 Tbl. lemon juice
• 1 tsp salt + 1 tsp. salt
• 1 Tbl butter + 2 Tbl butter, melted
• 1 cup oatmeal
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/4 tsp baking soda

Combine apples, 1 tablespoon cinnamon, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tsp salt and lemon juice.  Layer in the bottom of dish (I used a pie pan, but whatever you have on hand will be just fine.)  Cut up 1 tablespoon of butter and dot the pan with it.

Pretty Little Apples...and BUTTER!

Combine the remaining ingredients, and cover the apples in the dish.  Bake at a 350 oven for 30 minutes, or until crisp.

Feel free to tweak, add, or remove whatever you wish!  I figure: you can’t mess up apple crisp TOO bad!

The Finished Product
