This apple crisp recipe (also known as apple crumble) is one of my daughter's favorite desserts.  See the tips below to find out how to make this into a seasonal craft project.

Ingredients

• 5-6 Large Apples (peeled, cored and sliced)
• 3/4 Cup White Sugar
• 1 T All-purpose Flour
• 1 t Ground Cinnamon
• 1/2 Cup Water
• 1 Cup Quick-Cooking Oats
• 1 Cup All-purpose Flour
• 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar (packed)
• 1/4 t Baking Powder
• 1/4 t Baking Soda
• 1/2 Cup Butter (melted)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
2. Place the sliced apples in a 9x13 inch pan.  Mix the white sugar, 1 tablespoon flour and ground cinnamon together, and sprinkle over apples.  Pour water evenly over all.
3. Combine the oats, 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and melted butter together.  Crumble evenly over the apple mixture.
4. Bake at 350° F for about 45 minutes.

Tips

This recipe can be turned into a seasonal craft project by mulitplying the powdered ingredients by the number of kids.  Separate the oats into one large bowl, and the other ingredients mixed well into another bowl.  Pass the ingredients around and let eash child take a scoop of oats and 3 scoops of the other ingredients and place into a masonry jar.  Put a nice cloth on top tied with twine and connect a decorated index card with directions.
