Baked Apple Crisp

Ingredients

Filling

  • 2 cans of apple pie filling

  • Baked Apple Whiskey

Crisp Topping

  • ⅓ cup white sugar

  • ⅓ cup brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup flour

  • ¾ cup instant oats

  • ½ cup margarine

    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium sized bowl add the apple pie filling and then pour 2 shots of Baked Apple Whiskey. Stir with a spoon to incorporate the alcohol. Pour the filling into a 9x13 pan.

    In a separate bowl prepare the crisp topping. Add all of the dry ingredients and mix with a fork. Melt the margarine in a small bowl in the microwave. Add the melted margarine to the dry ingredients and stir with a fork. Mix with your hands if needed to get the margarine mixed in. There should be lots of clumps of crisp.

    Crumble the crisp over the top of the apples. Put in the oven and bake until the topping is browned and crisp, 30-40 minutes.

Ingredients

    Step 1

    Process 1½ cups flour, salt, and sugar in food processor until combined, about 2 one-second pulses. Add butter and shortening and process until dough just starts to collect in clumps (dough will resemble cottage-cheese curds). Scrape bowl and redistribute dough evenly around processor blade. Add remaining cup flour and pulse until mixture is evenly distributed around bowl and mass of dough has been broken up, 4 to 6 quick pulses. Empty mixture into medium bowl.

    Sprinkle vodka and water over mixture. With rubber spatula, use folding motion to mix, pressing down on dough until dough is slightly tacky and sticks together. Divide dough into two even balls and flatten each into 4-inch disk. Wrap each in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes or up to 2 days.
