Apple Crisp

My favorite recipe for apple crisp was from one of the professor's who lived in my dorm at university as a "professor in residence." I made it for a long time, but it required Bisquick, which I just never have on hand. When looking to make this recently, I was looking at other recipes, and essentially put one by the NYTimes and the professor's together to create this version. 


Apple Crisp

Ingredients

8-10 apples 
3/4 cup water

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick of butter, cut into 1-tablespoon pieces
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup oats 
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. 

2. Peel the apples and cut them into small 1/2-1 inch chunks. Place them in the bottom of a 8 or 9-inch round baking pan with somewhat taller sides. Pour the water over the top. 

3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt. Mix in the butter with hands until the consistency is like sand. Then, mix in the sugar, oats, and cinnamon. 

4. Pour the topping over the apples and cook for about 40 minutes, until the topping is browned and the apples are tender. 

5. I like to serve it warm, but you can serve it hot or at room temperature with ice cream.
