Notes
Use Honeycrisp, granny smith, Macintosh or Cortland apples for best results.
You can use quick oats or rolled oats for the crisp topping. Do not use steel cut oats!
Use room temeprature oil or butter rather than melted. This will result in the best texture for the crisp topping.
You do not need to cover the crisp while baking.
Store leftovers in the fridge covered for up to 5 days.
