One of the best parts of fall in my opinion is baking with apples and my personal favorite is apple crisp…I have made it 3 times so far this fall! I have been to many apple orchards this season all through Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Half the fun in my book is picking the apples and filling up the tote with the best looking apples in the orchard.
My favorite apple crisp recipe is so simple and I will share it with you here!
Place in buttered 10” x 6” x 2” baking dish 4 cups sliced apples. Sprinkle with 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 cup water. Rub together 3/4 cup sifted Flour, 1 cup sugar, 1/3 cup butter. Drop mixture over apples. Bake. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Temperature: 350 degrees
Time: Bake 40 minutes
Amount: 6 servings
Recipe taken from a very old General Mills Cookbook. I can’t even tell you what year because it is falling apart from this recipe being made all the time.

I love the tidbit about the cook book falling apart! It shows that this has been a tradition as you have been cooking the pie as you grew up! Although I missed out on the apple picking part this year, I completely agree with everything you have said and will never grow tired of the taste and smell of this pie!
