Skillet Apple Crisp

October 21, 2011 |

I absolutely love fruit dessert that end in “pie”, “cobbler” or “crisp”. I love flaky pie crust, light-as-air biscuit topping, and crunchy streusel toppings. It might even be a fair statement that I love all of these things even more than the fruit fillings. Hey, you like what you like and you can’t help it! [...]

I can’t think of a better way to welcome fall with open arms than with a piled-high-to-the-sky apple pie. When it comes to apple pie, I’ve always fallen sort of in the middle when choosing between double-crust and Dutch crumb. It’s no secret that I love crust, so the more crust the better (which was [...]
