Ingredients

5 - 6 cups apples
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup flour

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 2 quart or 9 x 9 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Peel washed apples. Slice into thick pieces.
Combine prepared apple and white sugar; pour into prepared dish.
Cut cold butter into flour and brown sugar to form streusel topping. Pour topping mixture over sweetened apples.
Bake in preheated oven for 30 - 40 minutes or until the apples are fork tender and topping is golden brown.
Serve warm as is, or top with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Use whatever type of apples you have on hand. Originally, it called for Minnesota apples, but any variety will work.
Peel apples first. Cut into thick slices. If you cut too thin, the apples will disintegrate during baking changing the texture.
Be sure to start with cold butter.
A pastry blender works best to cut cold butter into the streusel topping; however, two forks, two knives or clean hands work too.
You can bake this in pretty much any baking dish you have on hand as long as the apples fit. The original recipe used a pin tin. I prefer to use a 2 quart Pyrex baking dish.
I also love my Grandma's Old Fashioned Apple Crisp recipe too!
