Cranberry Apple Crisp
It's fall out there, folks. And fall mean apples. Cranberries. Halloween. Thanksgiving. The shopping day countdown to Christmas.
As a family, we do not celebrate Halloween. But almost every year, we host good friends for dinner that night. Their neighborhood does Halloween big time, and since we live on a busy road, even with every light in our house, no one ever knocks on our door. Ever. This year it almost didn't happen....but thanks to Hurricane Sandy rescheduling things, non-Halloween Dinner at our house happened again!
My favorite part about hosting ANY dinner event is dessert. I'm not sure if you've noticed, but I'm a dessert freak. I love to bake desserts, I love to eat desserts, and I love to share desserts and relish the kudos. The eyes rolled back in the heads, the ummming and yummmming that I get. Fills my ego tank quite full.
Well, tonight I decided to try something different. It was delicious!!!! :) Top with a little whipped cream and it was to die for.
ENJOY!!!!
Cranberry Apple Crisp
1 Can Happy Harvest Cranberry Sauce (I used jellied, but next time trying whole berry)
4 medium apples, peeled and medium diced (I used jonagold and galas)
1/4 cup Grandma's Best Sugar
1 Cup Millville Quick Oats
1/2 Cup Baker's Corner Brown Sugar, packed
1/4-1/2 Cup Friendly Farms Butter, softened
Pinch salt.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl, combine cranberry sauce, apples and 1/4 cup sugar. Mix well, breaking up the cranberry sauce.
Spoon mixture evenly into greased ramekins (I used 8 oz Ramekins).
In another bowl, mix together oats, brown sugar, salt and butter. Mix well. Spoon mixture evenly on top of the ramekins. Press down. Bake for 35-40 minutes....top will be crisped and brown, apple/cranberry mixture will be bubbly.
Let stand for about 5 minutes before serving (unless you like sugar burns....ouch!).
