SKILLET APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt using a fork or pastry cutter. Cut the butter into small pieces and gradually add it to the flour mixture until evenly mixed. Set aside.
• For the apple filling: In an 8-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices and a pinch of salt and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla and lemon juice.
• Cover the apple filling in the skillet evenly with the crumb topping. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until crisp and brown on top, an additional 20 to 30 minutes.
• Serve with vanilla ice cream.

A LITTLE FRUIT WITH MY CRISP

Steps:

• For the berry mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the raspberries and strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch and vanilla. Stir and set aside.
• For the crisp: Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. In a large bowl (or food processor), combine the butter pieces, flour, oats, granulated sugar, brown sugar, pecans and salt. Cut together with a pastry cutter (or pulse in the food processor) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Press half of the crisp mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with the berry mixture, then sprinkle the remaining crisp over the top. Bake until the topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.

CRISP IN A PINCH

Steps:

• Place a small pot over medium heat and add the blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, granulated sugar and lemon zest and juice. Cook until the sugar is dissolved and the berries have released their juices, about 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the granola. Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oats and almonds and toast until light golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and reserve. Reduce the heat to medium, then add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter is melted, add the maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute, until you have a thin syrup. Add the toasted ingredients back to the skillet. Cook, stirring and tossing the ingredients, for 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Make a slurry by stirring the cornstarch into 2 tablespoons of water. Stir into the berry mixture and allow to thicken, about 1 minute.
• Portion the berry mixture into 4 serving bowls. Top liberally with the oat and almond mix. Add 1 scoop of ice cream to each and garnish with a little more of the berry mix, a little more granola and some mint, then serve warm.
