RECIPE

Apple Crisp Dessert

Apple Crisp Dessert

Ingredients:

  • 2 ½ Cups Marlo apples
    - peeled, cored, and sliced

  • 1 Cup sifted all-purpose flour

  • 1 Cup white sugar

  • ½ Teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ Teaspoon salt

  • ½ Cup butter, softened

METHOD:

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.

  2. Lightly grease a 20cm square baking dish.

  3. Arrange Marlo apple slices evenly in the greased baking dish.

  4. Sift, or carefully stir, the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.

  5. Cut the butter in gently using two knives, and ensure that the butter still remains in small lumps. The mixture should resemble coarse cornmeal, as this will result in a light, crunchy topping for your Marlo apples.

  6. Sprinkle the topping over the Marlo apples.

  7. Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, and until the topping is golden.

  8. Cool slightly before serving.
