Apple crisp

 I don't know where I first got this apple crisp recipe.  I learned from my mom how to make apple crisp this way. It's delicious and everyone loves it. Often my kids eat apple crisp for breakfast.  In my mind it's just apples and granola.  When apples are in season I peel, slice and freeze apples in freezer bags so I can make apple crisp all winter.

Apple Crisp

topping

1/2 cup of soft butter
1 tsp of cinnamon 
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup of all purpose flour
2 cups of oats,   I usually use quick oats but also rolled oats work.
1 cup of brown sugar. Mix until wet, if dry add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil.  I usually do this.

10 or twelve apples peeled and sliced 
Put in bottom of 9x11 inch pan.  Sprinkle top of apples with 2 tbsp of white sugar and 1 tsp of cinnamon. 
Cover apples with topping and bake 50 mins at 350.

Sometimes I use apples straight from the freezer. Apple crisp is great with frozen apples but the apples cook down like apple sauce. Still delicious.
