Apple Crisp

Apple Crisp
From Lion House Classics
Makes 12 to 15 servings

Topping:
1 C butter, cold
1 C brown sugar
1 C flour
1 C oatmeal
1/4 t baking powder

Filling:
6 C canned apples or 6-8 fresh apples, peeled and sliced
1/2 C sugar
1/4 t salt
1 t cinnamon

In a large bowl, mix butter, brown sugar, flour, oatmeal, and baking powder just until butter is broken up and ingredients are mixed. Mixture should be crumbly. Set aside.

Place apples in a 9x13-inch pan. SPrinkle with sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Crumble crisp topping on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown. (If fresh apples are used, bake 45 minutes.) Serve warm or cold, with whipped cream or ice cream.

**Notes from Em**
I made this recipe a couple of times this last summer, and I used melted butter instead of cutting in cold butter. It made it easier in preparation, and still turned out well, though you will get a more crumbly crumb topping if you use the cold butter.
