In summary, the best type of apple to use for apple crisp is a firm and tart apple, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. You can also use old-fashioned oats instead of quick oats for the topping, and you can make apple crisp ahead of time by preparing the filling and topping separately or by making the entire dish and reheating it. Whether or not to peel the apples is a matter of personal preference, and you can also use a different type of fruit in place of apples, such as peaches, pears, or berries. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time and sugar according to the fruit you choose.

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
Whipped cream or ice cream (optional)
• Peel, core and slice apples using Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer.
