This apple crisp recipe is simple, easy to make, and just delicious. Reheat leftovers for extra crispness.

Certain apple varieties do better in baking than others (keeping their form and flavor) and itโ€™s good to check before you bake. You can see the list ofย Best Apples For Pies here.

You canโ€™t go wrong with apples, flour, rolled oats, butter, sugar, and spice stirred together and baked until crisp on top.

You probably already have all the ingredients in your cupboard.

Also, it sounds strange, but you can also substitute sliced zucchini for the apples. Crazy, I know, but delicious too. If you want to go next level, top it with this Perfect Granola recipe.

Tip For Peeling Apples

If you peel a lot of apples, you may want to invest in a good peeler/corer. You can see one here on Amazon: Apple and Potato Peeler.

PEELING TIP: Alternately, itโ€™s a little cruder, but you can also place the apple on a clean drill bit, and run the drill while pressing a vegetable peeler against it. Itโ€™s a two-person job, but it works!
