Was very easy and turned out ok. Next time I might add some oats to the topping. Also, might mix some of the topping down into the apples, too... so it's not just a layer of apples and a layer of topping.

This isn't your traditional apple crisp, but it is very good and fairly healthy. First of all, only use 4-5 apples for an 8 inch dish, depending on the size of apple. You do not need 8 apples for an 8 in. dish! As suggested by others, decrease the flour to 3/4 cup and add 1/4 cup of oats. I use 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar. It definitely has a hard, crunchy top, but it tastes good. I suggest taking a knife and poking the surface of the topping to break it up.

Very tasty and simple dessert. Don't crumble the butter too fine, leaving it in pieces is what gives you the 'crunch'. Also super with fresh peaches too. Don't forget the vanilla ice cream!

I don't usually review, but I just have to say that this recipe is not very good. I made it according to the instructions and it came out horribly. The apples were dry and the topping was soggy and gross. Sorry, but it just wasn't good.

This was not at all what I expected. The overall appearance was not attractive. The egg/flour/sugar mixture was wet and runny. the only thing that improved it was the addition of Ben and Jerry's ice cream on top. I know now to stick with the "Joy of Cooking" recipe.

I thought this recipe was great and my guests agreed...most went for seconds! I used a combination of Granny Smith and Cortland apples and I added a little lemon juice when I was mixing the apples and cinnamon. Very easy and very yummy!

I followed the recipe and it didn't turn out. The flour mixture just sat on the top of the apples. I added over a cup of (hot) water while baking and increased the temp and time and it turned out ok. I think there are better recipes out there.

It did indeed taste really amazing but nothing about it was crispy which was a complete let down. I added some oats because I remember putting some in when I took cooking in high school, I think this added to it.

I just finished making this recipe, and boy was it good! I did tweak the recipe a little though, based on previous reviews I took their advice to come up with something relatively similar. Instead of the ingredients listed above, I used 3 Granny Smith Apples, ¾ cup of all purpose flour, ½ cup white sugar, ¼ cup rolled oats, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 egg, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Like the recipe says, I first mixed together the flour, white sugar, egg, and baking powder; only I found the mixture to be a little too dry so I added some water. Then I sliced the apples (I left the skin on and you couldn’t even tell they were there) and mixed them with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. After that I greased an 8x8 pan and spread the apples evenly around the pan. After the apples were in place, I spread the “cornmeal” mixture on the apples and then topped it with a mixture of 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, the brown sugar, and rolled oats. Finally I topped the whole thing with the melted butter. The pie tasted DELICIOUS!! And it was indeed low-fat. I think I may have used slightly too much cinnamon but other than that it was GREAT! Thanks for the recipe, it was so easy!! I will definitely make it again!!

I made it, but it did not come out very good. The top was really hard, and it just tasted bland and eh. Not making it again.

This recipe is super tasty! I always double the amount of butter that I drizzle over the top, but it is awesome. My husband LOVES this stuff and he doesn't usually eat sweets. It's very easy and doesn't require a lot of ingredients. I like it!

I must admit that even though I have tasted quite a few apple crisp, this was my first time making one. I added soft butter to the apples along with the melted butter for the topping. And because I really wanted that extra crispy taste, i spinkled instant oats on the top. it was goog but next time I want to and nuts and raisins.
