  • Hey dudes!

  • I am Hilah, and today on Hilah Cooking we're making a special fall dessert with lots of

  • different apples, top it with a crunchy, crunchy topping with oatmeal and nuts and brown sugar

  • and butter and it's so good and it's so easy!

  • Yeah, apple crisp it's easy, it's easier than a pie!

  • Oh, hey.

  • So any time you are doing a pie or apple crisp or anything like that, I think it's best to

  • use a variety of apples so that you get lots of different appley flavors.

  • So I have got here some granny smith.

  • I would say always include some granny smith because they a little bit of tartness, and

  • they are really firm and they hold up well to cooking, and then some Rayburn and they

  • are just real sweet and crisp and very traditional like apple flavor, and then I forget what

  • these are called, like sunshine, or sunrise, but they smell like a cross between a golden

  • delicious and a Macintosh, now, I am not going to peel these.

  • You can peel them if you want, but I don't mind the skins.

  • They have nutrient, and it saves you a little bit of time.

  • So because I am not peeling them, I am gonna cut them up pretty thinly, so we don't end

  • up with like any big chunks of skin, just like that, about a quarter inch and then as

  • we cut them I can toss them into, I've just got like a 13 x 9 inch pan here, just kind

  • of spread them out, mix them up, and this is a great use for like slightly bruised apples

  • as well.

  • So you don't have to always have the finest looking specimens.

  • So I am just gonna keep these up, and I will just let you know when I am done, okay?

  • Don't just, let me do all the work, please, just sit back, enjoy yourself.

  • Now to keep the apples from turning brown and oxidizing, we're going to just squeeze

  • a little bit of lemon juice over them.

  • Raaawwrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

  • [laughs] Okay, so just let that hang out while we make our toppings.

  • All right, so I think it was temp9747 YouTuber that requested gluten-free desserts, so this

  • is a gluten-free dessert.

  • Some people add flour to their crisps, but I find it makes them a little bit less crispy,

  • so why not use some nuts instead?

  • So what I have got here are some hazelnuts, aka filberts, I am just going to finely chop

  • these, and these are what they use to make Nutella.

  • If you've never had one, they are similar in flavor to a Brazil nut I think.

  • That's probably the closest.

  • If you can't find these, you could use almonds, or you could use, I don't know walnuts and

  • pecans would work, but they are not, they don't have the same texture, they are more

  • of a softer nut, if you know what I mean.

  • Macadamia nuts might be good.

  • Anyway, I mean, use whatever you want to.

  • Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo doo.

  • That looks good.

  • There's a nut trying to escape.

  • So I wanted about half a cup.

  • I have got a little more than that.

  • It's okay, we can add more, nothing in the world.

  • All right, the rest of our topping ingredients here.

  • I've got some rolled oats, and these are not quick oats, they are the old-fashioned oats

  • that cook in five minutes or whatever, but I am just gonna sort of like break these up

  • with my hands, and then I've got some brown sugar.

  • I want to keep some of the oats in big pieces and some of them in finer pieces, and having

  • those two different sizes is just gonna add a lot more crunchiness to our topping, and

  • my brown sugar is like really old and hard, so, pardon me while I muscle it a little bit.

  • Okay, I should have brought some new brown sugar for the new season of Hilah Cooking

  • shouldn't I?

  • That would have been symbolic, right?

  • Oh, God.

  • Making a huge mess.

  • [laughs] Back to my old shenanigans.

  • Okay.

  • So, you know, try to break up your sugar clumps if you can or don't maybe it just adds more

  • texture, and if you wanted to like whiz it around or pulse it in the food processor or

  • something, you could do that, but then you have to wash the thing, and achhhhhh!

  • God, I hate dished right?

  • Thumbs up if you hate dishes.

  • Okay, great!

  • I am gonna add my nuts and some cinnamon, about a teaspoon, that's good.

  • If you wanted to use like pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice, that's totally fine.

  • Totally fine with me, and then some nutmeg, and this is kind of a strong spice.

  • Not everyone is in love with nutmeg but I like it.

  • If you don't like nutmeg, you could add some cloves or some AllSpice and then just grating

  • it, it's, you know, it's a little nut.

  • It's why it's called nutmeg I guess, and you can buy it already ground or you can grate

  • it yourself, and you know, it's kind of fun to do stuff yourself I think .Son of a . . . God.

  • . . [laughs]

  • Okay, clearly that's enough, and then, my butter!

  • All right, so half a cup of melted butter, and I always use unsalted butter when I bake

  • just sort of out of habit, so I am gonna add a little bit of salt to this too, but if you're

  • using salted butter, you don't need to add any salt, and really like not very much at

  • all, just a big pinch, like an eighth of a teaspoon or something.

  • Now, and mix this all together, and we just sort of cover our apple deal here.

  • I am just gonna use my paws here.

  • That's why God gave them to me, right?

  • Awesome!

  • So I am gonna put this in the oven at 375 for about 30 minutes until the apples are

  • tender and are crispy!

  • Mmmmmm, butterfingers.

  • All right, it's cooked.

  • It's been cooling here for maybe 15 minutes, so you can serve this as is.

  • You can also serve it with some ice cream on top, pour some whipped cream, or even some

  • sour cream if you're using really sweet apples.

  • Mmmmm.

  • Hmmmm.

  • Apple crisp!

  • It's so delicious and it's easier than a pie.

  • I hope you try this.
