Whole Wheat Brown Sugar Apple Crisp with Cinnamon Whipped Cream
Whole Wheat Brown Sugar Apple Crisp
It’s apple season here at our household, and our apple tree is bursting with fruit. While planning to take a meal to a family at church who just had a baby, I decided to make an apple pie. But, when I inventoried my aluminum pans, I discovered that I’m out of pie plates. Since I try not to take anything that needs to be returned to me (so that the family doesn’t have to keep up with dishes from so many church members bringing food) I decided instead to use a square cake pan and make an apple crisp. This was so good, very simple, and so easy to make.
4 cups of apples, peeled and sliced
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp Kosher salt
¼ cup water
¾ cup whole wheat flour (I used fresh ground, soft white wheat)
¾ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup butter, softened
FOR THE CREAM:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 TBS powdered sugar
¼ tsp cinnamon
Sharp knife and cutting board
bowl
mixing spoon
measuring cups/spoons
9x9x2 square pan (or 9-inch pie plate)
Mixing bowl and mixer for the whipped cream
Preheat oven to 350° degrees F (120° degrees C).
Place bowl and beaters for the whipped cream in the refrigerator.
Peel and slice apples. I use an apple peeler and a slicing contraption.
Place 4 cups of sliced apples in the pan.
Sprinkle with cinnamon, salt, and add water.
In a bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, and butter.
Top the apples with the dough.
Bake at 350° degrees F for 40 minutes.
Serve warm topped with Cinnamon Whipped Cream:
In the chilled bowl, beat the whipping cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon until the cream is stiff.

That slicing contraption is pretty sweet! What exactly is that?
BTW, that looks yummy! I might try it soon. :)
This looks absolutely delicious. I am going to give this a try this weekend. Than you for the recipe and the wonderful presentation.
Apple Crisp is probably one of my favorite desserts of all time. You make me hungry.
That looks delicious! I’ll have to try it when we get into fall weather around here. Apple crisp is a favorite fall treat.
(I have a hard time finding your comment link. I see where it’s at the top, but I usually look for it at the bottom of the post first out of habit. Just wanted to let you know.)
It’s this chopper thing that I found at Sam’s club. My other chopper is great, but I don’t think it was designed for the volume of use in my kitchen. I’ve gone through three in the last three years.
