Ingredients
For the filling
- 3 lb crisp, firm apples (I use a mixture of Granny Smith and Golden Delicious)
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 4 tbsp maple syrup
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup Calvados (apple liqueur) or apple cider
For the crisp topping
- 1 cup granola
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter cold
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar
- 3 tbsp old-fashioned oats
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
For the crisp
- Combine the brown sugar, oats and cinnamon and whisk to combine.
- Cut in the cold butter until a coarse crumb texture is achieved.
- Stir in granola and set aside.
For the filling
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Wash, peel and slice apples about ¼ inch thick.
- In a large bowl combine apples, lemon zest, lemon juice, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Stir to combine.
- Melt butter in a 12-inch cast iron (or oven safe) skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add apple mixture. Cook until the apples become saucy, thickened and are beginning to soften, 8-10 minutes. Add the flour and stir to combine.
- Add Calvados (or cider) and stir.
- Move skillet to preheated oven and bake until apples are softened and bubbling, 10-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle prepared crisp topping evenly over the apples and return to oven until the crisp turns golden brown, approximately 4-6 minutes more.
- Remove from oven and let cool but serve warm.
