When I went into the big freezer in search of something else, I discovered a bag of frozen Cortland apple slices (chunks) that were dated October 2021. I had forgotten all about them. What to do? I have been checking out the cupboard supplies lately to be sure my items aren't outdated and found one box that was very close. Light bulb! I will make an apple crisp in my new casserole dish. It will be a treat! This morning I undertook the project. I don't do much baking now as it is more difficult to clean up and use up the results, but.....The main work was already done. The three large apples from last year were already peeled, cored and sliced and ready! And, best of all I had never made an apple crisp in a pie plate, no less than one of special pottery! The recipe I dug out called for the exact amount of apples that I had so it seemed the best thing to do with them.
Bisquick and Apples
Ingredients
3 C apples peeled and sliced
1 t ground cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1/2 C Bisquick mix
2 large eggs
1/2 C granulated sugar
1/2 C whole milk
1 t vanilla extract
1 T butter, softened
1/4 t Kosher salt
Topping
1/2 C Bisquick mix
1/4 C light brown sugar, packed
1/2 t ground cinnamon
2 T cold butter
Instructions
1. Preheat oven 325° and grease 9” or 10 “pie dish.
2. Add cinnamon and nutmeg to apples and mix well.
3. Add the apple mixture to prepared pie dish and spread out evenly.
4. Whisk together a 1/2 C of Bisquick mix, eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, butter and salt.
The butter is soft but not melted and will leave lumps. OK. Pour wet mixture over over apples.
5. Use your hands or pastry cutter to mix topping until a crumble forms. Sprinkle over top.
I don't think I've ever had crisp made with Bisquick.
ReplyDeleteIt is more like a cobbler than a crisp.
