Question 1

What apples should I use for apple crisp?

Accepted Answer

You should use a crisp, tart variety of apple that will stand up well to baking. Granny Smith and Honeycrisp are both good choices. Even Golden Delicious will work. You can use all one variety of apple or you can mix together a couple of different types of apple to use in your dessert.

Question 2

How do I prevent my apple crisp from being too wet?

Accepted Answer

One of the easiest ways to avoid wet apple crisp is to use a thickener to bind the apple juices together. The most common thickener is a cornstarch slurry, mixed with the apples before being added to a baking dish. For the best balance, you should use a 2-to-1 ratio of water to cornstarch, shaken vigorously, to the apples.

Question 3

How do I slice or cube my apples for apple crisp?

Accepted Answer

For a softer texture in apple crisp, slice the apples thinly so they become fully tender. No one wants a crunchy apple in their apple crisp. If you prefer a chunkier texture, cube the apples instead of slicing them.

Question 4

How do I check if my apple crisp is done?

Accepted Answer

Apple crisps can be deceiving. Do you want to pull the container out when it’s bubbling around its edges? Not necessarily! Check the tenderness of the apples by inserting a paring knife into one or two pieces; if it slides through easily with no resistance, your dessert is ready.

Question 5

When does Apple Crisp expire?

Accepted Answer

Apple crisp, whether homemade or purchased, lasts about 5-7 days in the refrigerator. If you're not planning to consume it within that timeframe, it might be best to freeze it, which can extend its shelf life to up to 3 months. Once it's thawed though, consume it within 2 days.

Question 6

How do you tell if Apple Crisp is bad?

Accepted Answer

If your apple crisp has developed an off smell, changed its color or texture, or if you see mold growth, it has likely gone bad. Taste is also a good indicator. If the flavor is off or unexpected, it's time to toss it.
