Cooking with Kids, Apple Crisp

This is a fun, easy recipe for kids!

Cooking with kids is one my favorite joys of homesteading and living a simple life. Spending time in the kitchen with my family brings back memories of my childhood.

When I was a child, I loved to be in the kitchen with my mom, especially while she was baking.  The scents in the kitchen while baking are sensational and transport me back to a simpler time.

Just as I did, my girls also love to be in the kitchen.   They are there every time they get a chance.  I want to make the same kinds of memories with them as my mom did with me.  This Apple Crisp is a perfect recipe to do just that!

I bought my youngest daughter a miniature baking set for Christmas a few years ago. She uses it all the time.  I would like to share the  Apple Crisp recipe she makes in the 2 small ramekins she got with the set.  She even got a little set of cooking utensils and a chef set.

Ingredients for Apple Crisp:

2 medium Apples (Granny Smith, Cortland, McIntosh, or any tart baking apple), peeled and cored

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar

2 tablespoons oats

1 tablespoon +1 teaspoon walnuts or hickory nuts, chopped (optional)

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

2 tablespoons butter, softened

2 small  6-Ounce Ramekins

Instructions for Apple Crisp:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Chop apples into 1/2 inch slices, then cut slices into 1 inch pieces.  Place one apple in each of the ramekins.

To make the topping, place the remaining ingredients in a small bowl and mix together with a fork until crumbly.

Sprinkle the topping mixture over the apples, half in each ramekin.

Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, or until topping is brown and apples are tender.  Remove from oven and let cool.

This delicious Apple Crisp can be served hot or cold.  We like to serve it with ice cream!

The recipe makes enough for her to share one with her sister and one for her to enjoy herself.
