OT - Foodie Friday
Thanksgiving (for me) is just 'round the corner and is the time of year that definitely ups my desire to bake. My DH doesn't even like cranberries and thinks apples are OKAY, but he luuuuuuuuuuuuuvs this dessert! IMHO, the combination of apples is what makes this dish.
APPLE-CRANBERRY CRISP
Topping
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup old-fashioned oats
2/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
Fruit
5 large Jonathan apples (about 2 1/2 pounds), peeled, sliced
4 Granny Smith apples (about 2 pounds), peeled, sliced
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
3/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
To prepare the topping:
Mix first 3 ingredients in bowl. Add butter; rub with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal.
To prepare the fruit:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Mix apples, cranberries, sugar, flour and cinnamon in large bowl. Add 6 tablespoons butter and toss. Transfer to dish.
Crumble topping over fruit. Bake until apples are tender, about 1 1/4 hours. Cool slightly.

Vodka/gin/rum suggestion:
Vodka/gin/rum suggestion:
Place a fifth in a container that is about 2/3 the height of your liquor bottle and has about 1-inch of space all the way around. Place the bottle in the center. Fill with water: 1-2 inches below the rim but do NOT cover the skinny part of the bottle. Add some color: bits of greenery and whole cranberries, mini roses and leaves, etc. Freeze.
RIP in hot water to remove the container. Be sure you keep the bottle on a tray so the melting ice doesn't run over your bar/table!!
It should say DIP in hot
It should say DIP in hot water; not RIP! Lol
