I took this to a Thanksgiving Potluck. Kids liked it pretty well. It turned out like the photo -- the topping was not bad -- my only complaint was that it was too sweet. Will make again with much less sugar.

This did not work out. Most of my stuff turns out but I think my kids summed this one up best. "Too sweet, too sticky and too hard to scrape the uneaten remainder off of the plates and pan without an hour's soak in hot water."

This recipe was really easy. Mine turned out great. The topping is a little tricky because you have to spread it over the apples. I altered the recipe to yield 3 and I added 1/4 tsp of cloves and nutmeg as well. Perfect for just a couple people wanting an after dinner treat. It is delicious!

I loved this recipe, but I added another apple to create a deeper dish and mixed cinnamon within the brown sugar to bring out the sweet apple flavor a little bit more. At the end of spreading the flour mixture, I sprinkled a white and brown sugar mixture on top. Great recipe though!

I love this apple crisp. the only thing is I doubled the eggs and the butter in the topping. but the first time I made it I did it the right way and that was really good as well. My puppy absolutly loved it too when he got in to it while it was cooling. so very good. I will be making it for thanksgiving.

This was a very good recipe. I used mcintosh apples, but I used more than the recipe called for because my apples were small. The crust was sweet but not too sweet. Very tasty! Highly recommend!

I changed a few things. Made it in a pie crust and layered apples and crips mixture. Better served with ice cream!

I've made this twice and it got rave reviews from my family/company both times. I added more butter due to some comments that it was a bit dry and it came out wonderful. A great fall treat!

It was good but way too sweet and I love sweet. Just adjust some of the sugars and I think it will be great. My husband liked it so that's a good sign.

Left out the egg and used more butter to make a 'crumbier' topping, tossed apple slices with a capful of lemon juice while they rested then sprinkled apple slices with a little extra cinnamon and sugar. Used HoneyCrisp Apples - lots of juice so it came out a little googey but served with vanilla ice cream very yummy!

I really liked this recipe, and while I haven't made that many Apple Crisps in my life, I've eaten plenty and really liked this, and so did my three friends who I shared it with. I'm not sure what kind of apples I used, but they were definitely on the less sweet and watery side. Best part is that it wasn't as overly sweet like so many others are, and it was super easy to make! I used whole wheat flour as my only alteration.

I thought this was great! I can't have sugar so I used a sugar replacement and whole wheat flour. It was a huge hit!

I'm not a big fan of outmeal apple crisp. this is crunchy and good. Added a bit more brown sugar and used fresh apples. I'm so glad I didn't read the reviews before trying this one. Good job!

Absolutely delicious. Sprinkled a little extra sugar/cinnamon mix on the top and looked just like the picture. I have an apple tree full in the back of the house so already had this twice this week.

This was wonderful! I used a mixture of apples, and found the spices and sweetness perfectly balanced. I had no problem with the crust. My crust was crunchy and delicious, though not as crunchy as an oat and nut crust would be. With neither on hand and a craving for crisp, this was a fantastic alternative.

Not what I was expecting...like many of the other reviewers, I had a crumbly situation with the crust. That said, I was in a hurry and wanted something apple-y and cinnamon-y and this recipe fit the bill. It was pretty quick to make and had a great flavor. In a pinch, I'd make this recipe again although if I was having a pre-meditated apple crisp urge, I'd go with one of the more traditional recipes calling for oats. Pretty good for what it is, thanks for sharing!

I made this without the egg. I, also, sprinkled a tiny bit more melted butter, (I actually used Smart Balance margarine instead of butter), and a little water to the dish before putting into the oven. This coated the mixture just a little since I didn't use an egg. You can adjust the sugar to your taste. I'll use a tad less next time. I received compliments on this, even more than I do on the apple crisp I make with oats. I made this into a no cholesterol, low-fat dessert because of no butter or eggs and it came out tasting just superb.

I started making this recipe before I even read the reviews. I'm not sure what everyone was having problems with but the topping came out great and the crisp was not dry at all. I did everything according to directions (except my family cans apples like crazy in the fall so I used those instead of slicing my own apples. One of our jars equals 4 apple slices). I did not have a problem at all with the topping and I did not use a pastry blender, just whisked it all together and poured on top and came out great! My husband and daughter loved it. Goes great with french vanialla ice cream!

A perfectly adequate recipe, though hardly anywhere near the boast of "best", my family ate it without complaint. It certainly was easy to make. Just be sure to use a pastry blender to blend your egg and butter into the flour mixture and you'll have no trouble.

At valley forge we struggled for days to keep our muskets clean, our boots dry, and our bellies contented. WIth our tar heel baked by the one armed devil we called The Liberty Chief our moral and stupor of the men was as low as the virtues of a confederate . The men were threatening to turn in their cotton blues and march back to the comforts of their Boston mansions. I was depressed at my efforts to keep the men in line and fight for the preservation of the union under the almighty GOD. As all was seeming lost as the heavens assaulted us with the fury of her torrential angst, the leader of our beloved union came to me in a dream with a plan to defeat the confederate dogs. The war would not have been successed with out the ailment and power from GOD through the everlasting support of our beloved apple crisp. This recipe wasn't that good. But not bad. Just okay. My fellow brethren in the pursuit of liberty and justice and apple crisp. I salute you for your unheeding call to the preservation of the Great Union that we have been born into service to defend. GOD SPEED GENTLEMEN.
