Apple-Ginger-Cranberry Crisp

The boyfriend asked for this, so I said sure!  A new crisp recipe we hadn't tried before.  Unfortunately it's a little early to find cranberries in the store, so he bought frozen blueberries, which worked nicely.  Not the same as the cranberry would have been I'm sure, but tasty.  


Filling

4
medium tart cooking apples, peeled, sliced (about 4 1/2 cups)
2
Gala apples, peeled, sliced (about 2 cups)
2
cups fresh or frozen (do not thaw) cranberries
1
cup packed brown sugar
3
tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3
tablespoons cold butter, cut into 6 pieces
2
tablespoons lemon juice
2
teaspoons grated gingerroot
1 1/2
teaspoons ground cinnamon

Topping

1
cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2
cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
1/2
cup packed brown sugar
3
tablespoons finely chopped crystallized ginger
1/2
cup cold butter or margarine, cut into 8 pieces
1/4
cup chopped walnuts
Vanilla ice cream, if desired

Directions

  • 1In large bowl, mix all filling ingredients. Let stand 30 minutes.
  • 2Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray. Spoon apple mixture into pan.
  • 3In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour, the oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar and the ginger. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture is crumbly. Stir in walnuts. Sprinkle evenly over apples.
  • 4Bake 40 minutes or until apples are tender when pierced with fork and topping is golden brown. Serve with ice cream.
