Simple Apple Crisp Recipe
This week is my first week back to college! I'm a second semester senior with one class left!
To be completely honest senioritis is setting in big time especially since I'm currently taking my math requirement.
When I first saw my finite math textbook I was pretty happy. I knew everything in Chapters 1-6 because I'd been learning it since high school. It wouldn't be easy, but it would be do-able.
Except we started on Chapter 8. (Now hiring math tutor, will pay with cookies,JK
So naturally instead of working on math homework, I decided to bake something. Apples are coming into season so it's the perfect time to try my Simple Apple Crisp Recipe.
If you aren't a fan of oats you'll be pleased that they're not included in my simple apple crisp recipe. However, the topping is still super crunchy. nomnomnom

Simple Apple Crisp Recipe Variations:
Add oats or walnuts to the topping for an even crunchier texture.

Nothing beats a warm bowl of apple crisp on a cold night. It's comforting, heartwarming, and so delicious. I like to use oats and almond flour instead of flour in the crumble, more flavor and a bit of crunch that I enjoy.
