An Easy, Fast Dessert

on October 22, 2012

I have discovered a fantastic and easy dessert recipe and I will share it with you! I found it on Rachael Ray’s website. My kids and I have made it several times using the flour instead of the crackers.

Ingredients

  • McIntosh apples, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup flour or fine graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 stick butter

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a 9 by 12 baking dish, combine apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar. In a small bowl, mix flour or graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and butter together using the tines of a fork and your fingers, working until even, small crumbles form. Sprinkle topping evenly over apples and bake 15 to 20 minutes until apples are just tender and topping is golden brown.

Rachael recommends topping it with ice cream.

  3. Oh that looks so deliciously yummy! Even better for me is all the ingredients in it are already in my cabinet, so I can make it with no searching for organic ingredients! 🙂
