Apple crisp

Hey kiddo, do you like eating apples? Well, have you ever heard of apple crisp? It's a really yummy dessert that is perfect for when the weather is chilly outside.

So, apple crisp is kind of like a pie, but without the crust. Instead, it has a yummy crumbly topping made of things like oats, brown sugar, and butter. This topping gets baked in the oven until it's golden brown and crispy.

The filling of the apple crisp is made of sliced apples that are mixed with cinnamon, sugar, and sometimes other spices like nutmeg. This mixture gets placed in a baking dish and then topped with the crumbly topping.

When you bake apple crisp in the oven, the apples get soft and gooey, while the topping gets crispy and crunchy. The combination of textures and flavors is really delicious!

You can eat apple crisp by itself, or you can top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped cream. It's the perfect dessert for a cozy night in or a fall party with friends and family.

So, there you have it kiddo, apple crisp is a yummy, warm dessert made of sliced apples topped with a crispy, crumbly topping. It's perfect for chilly weather and tastes great with ice cream or whipped cream on top. Yum!
