Originally published April, 2015.

My daughter Olivia and I have a great love for graham crackers and love anything with a graham cracker crumb crust. I’d tried the idea of using graham cracker crumbs before in some Cherry Crumble Bars with great success.

So, with a surplus of apples to use in the fridge, this delicious apple crisp came to be invented. Since there were so many apples on hand, I tried to cram as many as I could into this crisp and my deep dish pie pate held them perfectly.

I like firmer  Red Delicious Apples for this recipe but you can use any kind you like.

The crisp turned out buttery delicious and the flavour of those graham crackers came through really well. It was well appreciated at Sunday dinner a couple of weeks ago and sent everyone clamouring for seconds.

Next time I might try it with cherries but I’m definitely giving it a whirl come summer peach season in a few months. Can’t wait to try that one!

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the crumb topping

Toggle ingredient group

• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 3/4 cup butter

Instructions

To prepare the apple layer

1. Mix together the brown sugar, corn starch, cinnamon and nutmeg until well combined, then toss together with the prepared apples.
2. Next, pour the apple juice, melted butter and vanilla extract over the apples and toss together gently. Pour the apples into a greased 10 inch deep dish pie pan or a 9x13 baking dish.

To prepare the crumb topping.

1. Mix together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and baking powder well.
2. Using your hands, rub the butter thoroughly through the dry ingredients.
3. When the butter is fully incorporated press t the crumble mixture together in handfuls so that it holds together and break off chunks of crumble about the size of the top of your forefinger, all over the top of the prepared apples. Press down very lightly and bake for about 50-60 minutes at 350 degrees or until the top is golden brown and the apples are bubbling.
