So, it's apple time in Ohio. I'm too lazy to make pastry (peeling and cutting up a half dozen apples is work enough) so an apple crisp is the route for me. For said lusciousness, peel and thinly slice 6-8 GRANNY SMITH apples (I don't care what anyone else says, you need MOSTLY grannies...you can toss in a Gala, Honeycrisp, Jonahgold, whatever else or TWO, but MOSTLY GS) and toss in a large mixing bowl with about 2 tbsp cinnamon, 1/2 c white sugar, a handful of brown sugar, some vanilla, and about a 1/3 c flour. Layer in a 9x13 dish. In the same mixing bowl, mix 2 c oats, 1/2 c flour, a large pinch of salt, 1/3 c white sugar, 1/3 c brown sugar, 1-2 tbsp cinnamon, some nutmeg (to taste) and 1 room temp stick of butter. Mix well, until mix is crumbly. Use hands. Press on top of apples - there's a LOT of topping, use it all, it's the best. Bake in a 375 deg oven for, oh, say 45-55 minutes, until the top is lightly browned and the apples are v. bubbly. Serve, obviously, with vanilla ice cream.
