Also from Grandma’s recipe box, written in her own hand, complete with some of her own inventive spelling.
Grandma’s Apple Crisp
- 10 apples
- 1 t. cinnamon
- 1/2 t. nutmeg
- 1/2 c. water
- 1 c. flour
- 1 1/2 c. brown sugar
- dash of salt
- 1/2 c. butter (grandma’s recipe actually calls for margarine but I always use butter when I bake.)
Cut up apples into a greased pan (the large Pyrex 10×16 inch pan). Add water, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Make a fine crumb mixture of the sugar, flour, salt, and butter. I do this in my Kitchenaid mixer–just be careful not to overmix it or it will turn into a dough. Spread crumbly mixture over apples. Bake in uncovered pan about 35 minutes at 375°.
What? You thought I’d leave the creative spelling in there?
where is the sugar in the recipe? I see NO sugar!?
Melissa,
Look again–there’s brown sugar there.
