Description

This comforting Ginger Apple Crisp features tender Rome apples infused with the zesty warmth of crystallized ginger. The fruit base is lightly sweetened and tossed with lemon juice for a bright balance. The topping, made from crushed cornflakes, brown sugar, and melted butter, bakes into a golden, crunchy crust that contrasts beautifully with the soft apples. It is a perfect dessert for autumn afternoons or a cozy winter evening. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla yogurt or ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence. Simple ingredients come together to create a classic, crowd-pleasing dish that feels both rustic and refined.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC).
  2. Lightly spray an 8-inch square (1.5-quart) baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with sugar and lemon juice until evenly coated.
  4. Place the coated apples into the prepared baking dish.
  5. In a small bowl, combine cornflake crumbs, brown sugar, flour, and chopped crystallized ginger.
  6. Pour melted butter over the dry topping ingredients and mix well until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  7. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish, pressing down gently.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving warm.

Note

Serve warm with frozen nonfat vanilla yogurt, ice milk, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added creaminess.

If you prefer a less intense ginger flavor, reduce the crystallized ginger to 1 tablespoon.

You can substitute McIntosh apples for Rome apples if desired, though Rome holds its shape better during baking.

For a vegan version, use margarine instead of butter in the topping.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
