This is the best apple crisp. The water mixture on the apples definitely was the best part of this dish. I decreased the butter in the topping to 1/2 stick, and decreased the white flour and added more oatmeal. I think next time I will use even less butter and make less topping. It was a little too dry on top but it was still excellent!

Just took this out of the oven, I could hardly wait for it to cool enough to taste! It was absolutely delicious! I substituted apple cider for for the water. Did not use any nuts tthis time, although I will try using them next time. (just didnt have them on hand! Apples were tender & done to perfection! Baked it for exactly one hour. The only thing that would or could make it any better was a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I even contimplated just drizzling some Baily's Irish Cream on top. I imagine that would be delicious too!

Just made it and had the first piece. Apples were nice and soft, I reduced the sugar by 1/2 a cup and found the apple were not too sweet. However, as others have mentioned I felt the sauce was too watery and the crust had too much flour. I think I will cut a 1/2 of water next time use 1/2 of the flour.

Overall though a nice way to get your crisp lessons started.

This recipe was very easy and made a very creamy, caramely apple filling and a nutty, crunchy topping that everyone from the children to the adults absolutely loved. It was like a caramel apple in a bowl! This could have been cloyingly sweet but, I served it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream and topped it with whipped cream and it helped to cut the sweetness. It is still a very rich dessert so a little goes a long way but, it is absolutely divine! My mother always ate her apple crisp warm, in a bowl, with cream poured over it. I would imagine that would also cut the sweetness and would be a yummy Southern treat on a cold Fall evening by the fire. Bon Apetit!

I am on a group at Church where we all take a turn feeding about 20-25 people once a week at a local Mission I was up for the dessert for the week I made this crisp. It is WONDERFUL I did use a small lemon for the juice over the apple slices so that they didn't turn brown. Has lots of favor and I am keeping the recipe to make again for the mission next month.

DELICIOUS! After looking at many recipes, I decided to try this one and I'm glad I did! Best tasting apple crisp I've had in years. Only thing I did differently was I squeezed the juice of 1/2 lemon over the apples after slicing...other than that, I followed the recipe to a T. We'll definitely have this one again!

This is a very yummy, simple apple crisp. The oatmeal topping is rich and nutty-- someone even asked if there were toasted almonds in it (which I didn't add. The 'liquid mixture' I think is the key to the recipe. I agree with others you can follow this recipe to the T and the cinnamon/nutmeg taste was not over powering at all. I did halve the sugar since my apples were sweet and I planned on serving with ice cream. I think the full amount of sugar would have been too sweet but that's just my taste. The only thing I might try next time is adding golden raisins to make it a little extra special.

This was definitely not the best crisp I ever made - and it was a bit more work, to boot. Too much flour in the topping, not quite enough cinnamon, and a bit too much water, which made the apple part runny. Won't make it again.

WOW!! That's the word to explain this dessert. The flavors were rich and sweet but not on the over-powering side. The oatmeal crust gave it a wonderful crunchiness in the texture.I've tried several apple crisp recipes in the past but, Emeril, ya "kicked it up a notch" with this one!
