Manic Monday Recipe~ Apple Crisp

**Update** I have added some mouth watering photos!

Okay, I have to admit, my favorite part of the apple crisp is the crust and topping.  Seriously, I love it so much, that when my mom used to make it for me, she would make a little extra so I could eat it.  So here is my mother's recipe, with the some of the ingredients increased to make your apple crisp extra crusty, hmm that sounds weird, but I assure you this apple crisp is delicious!

Ingredients:

Crust/Topping

1 1/2 C. Brown Sugar

2 1/2 C. Flour

1 1/2 C. Melted Butter

1 C. Oatmeal

1 C. Sugar

2 T. Corn Starch

1 tsp. Cinnamon

1 C. Water

6-8 Medium to Large Apples (I like Gala or Braeburn best)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the crust ingredients together.  Place half in a greased 9 x 13 pan.  Leave the rest aside for your topping.

Peal, core and cut your apples.  (I have this apple slicer and love it!) 

Then, mix the sugar, corn starch, Cinnamon, and water in a pot.  Put on medium heat and stir until the mixture becomes thick. 

Then stir the mixture in with your apples.  Once all of the apples have been coated in the glaze, pour it on top of the crust. 

Then take the remaining crust and sprinkle it evenly over the apples.  

Bake for 1 hour.

I'd love to hear how yours turns out!
