Gingersnap Apple Crisp
This gingersnap apple crisp resembles the classic oat-topped dish, but it’s shot through with warm spices from the cookies, which you blitz in a food processor.

8 servingsIngredients
9 large apples (preferably both sweet and tart varieties), peeled, cored, and cut into ½-inch slices
20 gingersnap cookies
½ cup firm-packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon kosher salt
10 tablespoons cold salted butter, cut into small pieces
¾ cup rolled oats
½ cup pecan or walnut halves
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 °F and set a rack to the middle position. Arrange the apples in an even layer in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
In a food processor, pulse the cookies, sugar, cinnamon, and salt until the mixture has a sandy texture. Add the butter, oats, and nuts and pulse until the nuts are the size of small peas and the mixture looks like wet sand.
Spread the mixture over the apples and bake until the topping is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes, then serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Recipe looks great and I can’t wait to try it.
Looking forward to making this for the family.
Thank You, New England Food!????
I made this last night and it was quick, easy and delicious. The gingersnaps really add a nice touch to the apple crisp.
I made this at the end of summer and everyone, including the grandkids couldn’t get enough! Thank you!
