Our Favorite Apple Crisp Recipe
- This easy apple crisp recipe is perfect any time of year, especially fall!
- It’s budget-friendly & uses ingredients you likely have in the pantry already.
- Prep it ahead of time and bake just before serving.
Apples For Apple Crisp
- Granny Smith Apples are the best apples for this crisp recipe. They hold their shape well, have the perfect texture, and a slightly tart flavor that pairs well with the sweet crumbly topping.
- For a sweeter crisp, use a sweeter apple like Honeycrisp, Braeburn, or Pink Lady, or even combine a couple of types of apples!
Apples should be peeled for apple crisp as the skins don’t soften well.
How to Make Apple Crisp
Forget “as easy as pie”, making apple crisp is even and easier than apple pie. This crisp recipe has a generous amount of topping, it’s my favorite part!
- Prepare Apples: Peel and slice apples. Toss with all-purpose flour, sugar, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl (per the recipe below).
- Prepare Topping: Mix the topping ingredients together until it begins to form large crumbs.
- Bake: Place apples in a baking dish, top with the crumb mixture, and bake until golden and bubbly.
How to Freeze Apple Crisp
Freeze apple crisp either before or after baking! It will keep in a deep freezer for up to 6 months and in a top freezer for 2-3 months.
Allow the crisp to thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating or baking.

Apple crisp can be prepared ahead of time and baked before serving, add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to the apple slices if preparing ahead of time. If the dish is cold from the fridge, it may need extra time to bake.
The topping can be made in large batches and frozen. To prepare crisp, make a fresh fruit filling and sprinkle the topping on right from frozen. Bake as directed.
