Urgent Apple Crisp in the Dcb - to Cover or Not to Cover

In summary, the recipe calls for apple peeler, corer, slicer, and chopper. You can use ground cinnamon in place of the Korintje cinnamon.

Hello everyone,

I'm making one of the Apple Crisp variations from the Magic Pot cookbook for a show tomorrow. The recipe isn't clear regarding covering or not covering it while microwaving. I've done it with the cover on and it turns out OK, but not very crisp. I don't have the time or ingredient to try it again not covered. Has anyone tried it? What would you suggest?
 
Hmmmm . . . I don't have that recipe in front of me, but I just had the Autumn Apple-Cherry Crisp one sitting right here. Does it have a topping? This recipe has that in the micro uncovered 5-7 min, then dumping out on parchment. The rest is done covered, then put the topping on and let it sit 5-10 minutes uncovered.

HTH,
Sandi
 
good question, found the one my director gave me that she uses with the dcb at the pc website, but it doesnt use the dcb like she does...

Cook's Tips: You'll need about 3 pounds of apples to make this recipe.

Ground cinnamon can be substituted for the Korintje Cinnamon, if desired.

If using a microwave oven without a built-in turntable, rotate the baker after 8 minutes of cooking.

To prepare this crisp in a conventional oven, preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare recipe as directed. Cover loosely with aluminum foil. Bake 45 minutes; uncover and bake an additional 5-10 minutes or until apples are tender.

Makes the house smell devine.
 
Hi there! I've made the Apple Crisp variation from the Magic Pot cookbook before and I usually cover it while microwaving. However, if you want a crispier topping, you could try leaving the cover off for the last few minutes of cooking. Another tip is to make sure the apples are sliced thinly and evenly so they cook through and the topping doesn't get soggy. Let us know how it turns out!
 

1. Should I cover my Apple Crisp when baking it in the Deep Covered Baker?

Yes, it is recommended to cover your Apple Crisp when baking it in the Deep Covered Baker. This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.

2. Can I use any type of apples for the Apple Crisp?

Yes, you can use any type of apples for the Apple Crisp. However, it is recommended to use a mix of tart and sweet apples for the best flavor.

3. How long does it take to bake the Apple Crisp in the Deep Covered Baker?

The baking time for the Apple Crisp in the Deep Covered Baker will vary depending on your oven, but it usually takes about 30-40 minutes. It is recommended to check on the crisp after 30 minutes and continue baking until the top is golden brown.

4. Can I use a gluten-free flour for the topping?

Yes, you can substitute regular flour for a gluten-free flour in the topping for the Apple Crisp. Just make sure to follow the measurement instructions on the gluten-free flour package.

5. Can I make the Apple Crisp ahead of time and reheat it?

Yes, you can make the Apple Crisp ahead of time and reheat it in the Deep Covered Baker or in the oven. Just be sure to cover it with foil before reheating to prevent it from drying out.
