We're Coming Up Galas at Lassen's!
The Gala apples are gorgeous and so delicious! I love the crispy snap of Galas, and the taste has just enough tart and just enough sweet. A friend of mine recently used Gala apples, sliced thin, in a turkey sandwich! Great idea!
Yesterday I took advantage of the proliferation (and great price!) of Gala apples, and made some apple crisp for my family. This is one of the simplest fruit desserts possible, and you can use all kinds of fruits to make a crisp!
Ingredients
5 organic Gala or other crisp apples (you could also use pears--especially the firmer Asian varieties, cherries, berries, or any combination of fruits)
1/4 cup organic maple syrup
1/2 cup organic rolled old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup organic unbleached white or whole wheat flour
1/3 cup organic brown sugar
2 TBSP chia seeds
3/4 tsp organic cinnamon
3/4 tsp nutmeg
3 TBSP organic butter, softened
1/4 cup organic maple syrup
1/2 cup organic rolled old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup organic unbleached white or whole wheat flour
1/3 cup organic brown sugar
2 TBSP chia seeds
3/4 tsp organic cinnamon
3/4 tsp nutmeg
3 TBSP organic butter, softened
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Wash, peel (if desired) and slice the apples into an 8- or 9-inch baking dish.
Pour the maple syrup over the apples, and stir to coat.
Mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and chia seeds until well blended. Add the softened butter and blend with the back of a large spoon until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the oat mixture over the top of the apples and spread evenly.
Bake 35 minutes, or until the topping is browned and the apples are tender when pricked with a fork.
Remove from the oven and serve warm. I poured a little half-and-half over my warm apple crisp!
