This apple crisp is one of our favorite ways to use our abundant harvest of golden delicious apples. We typically make a batch to eat, then 4-5 to freeze. We've had some a year or two later, and they're still delicious. The crumble recipe is, in my opinion, adequate for a full 9x13 pan of apples. But nobody would say the crisp isn't delicious condensed to the 8x8 pan ;). I found the recipe here. Enjoy!

Notes
Tips
- My favorite apples to use for this recipe are granny smith apples - the right amount of tart and sweet. If you don’t like granny smith apples and think they’re too tart? Try honeycrisp instead. Honeycrisp apples are a good alternative but they are slightly sweeter.
- A pound of apples is about 3 cups of sliced apples depending on their size. So for this recipe I would use just under one pound of apples.
- I love to add a big scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream to my apple crisp. You could add salted caramel sauce and cool whip. You could also sprinkle a little extra cinnamon sugar on top.
