A delightful apple crisp recipe that combines the sweetness of apples with a crunchy, nutty topping.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Peel and core the apples, then cut them into bite-sized chunks.
Use a mix of apple varieties for a more complex flavor.
Place the apple chunks in a baking dish and pour water over them.
Distribute the apples evenly for uniform cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the dry mixture. Use a food processor or your hands to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Chilled butter helps create a crumbly texture.
Stir in the chopped pecans to the topping mixture.
Adding nuts at the end preserves their crunch.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
Ensure the topping covers all the apples for a uniform crust.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Covering helps the apples soften without over-browning the topping.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes until the topping is golden brown.
Keep an eye on the topping to prevent burning.
Let the apple crisp cool slightly before serving.
Cooling allows the juices to thicken for better serving.
