Cooking Time: 1 Hour
Servings: 8 to 10
Ingredients:
- 8 Ontario Apples (about 3 lb/1.5 kg)
- 1 cup (250 mL) Ontario Cranberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) all-purpose flour or 1/4 cup (50 mL) each of all-purpose and whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) Large-flake rolled oats
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) packed brown sugar
- 2 to 4 tbsp (25 to 50 mL) finely minced candied ginger (optional)
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each of ground cardamom and cinnamon
- 1/3 cup (75 mL) butter, cut into chunks
Preparation:
Peel and core apples; slice into thin wedges. In large bowl, stir together apples and cranberries. Turn into 11- x 9-inch (2.5 L) baking dish.
In bowl, stir together flour, rolled oats, sugar, ginger (if using), cardamom and cinnamon. Using fingers, work in butter until pea-size crumbs form. Sprinkle over fruit.
Bake in 350 F (180 C) oven until bubbling around edges, topping is set and deep golden brown, about 1 hour. Check crisp after 45 minutes, if topping is becoming too dark, cover loosely with foil. Let stand for about 10 minutes before serving.
