Looking for an easy fall dessert? Look no further – warm apples are combined with caramel and topped with a delicious crumbly topping. This Caramel Apple Crisp is an easy and delicious dessert that everyone will love!

I love Fall. The changing leaves, the crisp air and the APPLES, specifically Honeycrisp – I am Minnesotan after all!! If you don’t get my reference, the University of Minnesota created the Honeycrisp apple, so I think I might be a bit biased.

Pumpkins, however, are not my jam. I hate pumpkin flavored anything – pumpkin pie, pumpkin spice lattes – if it has pumpkin in it, I am out!

Okay, so back to apples. Going to an apple orchard is something that I absolutely HAVE to do every fall. I don’t know what it is about apple orchards but they hold this sense of magic for me – strolling down the rows of apple lined lanes, on the hunt for the perfect juicy, red apple – oh man, I love it!

Matt and I have gone together every fall since we started dating (so, for the past 14 years!!) and now we have turned it into a fun family tradition. The boys always look forward to it every year too, so I am pretty excited that I am passing along my love for apple orchards!

We went a little overboard this year on the amount of apples we picked. We brought home 2 pecks of apples (I think we almost had 50 apples), so I have been busy coming up with new apple recipes. There’s nothing better than eating a fresh, juicy and crunchy Honeycrisp apple that’s just been picked.

Although, the next best thing is eating said apple with caramel – yummmmm!! Knowing this, I created my delicious Caramel Apple Crisp! Now, you can obviously make this crisp with any kind of apple, but (in case you couldn’t guess what I was going to say) I would recommend using Honeycrisp apples!

The Best Types of Apples to Use

Now, people have very strong opinions about apples. And, I am one of those people who has a very strong opinion. I think Honeycrisp apples are the perfect apple. Equal parts sweet, tart and the perfect crunch – does it get any better?! For this recipe, you want to make sure that you use a crisp apple. Honeycrisp fits the bill!

Caramel Apple Crisp

Everybody loves apples. Everybody loves caramel. Whoever was the genius that decided to put them together should be rewarded. Caramels and apples are the perfect combination.

So, take that perfect combination of caramel and apples and then add a crunchy, buttery topping. Does it get any better?!

• Let your kids help you dice the apples with their very own knives.
• Have them help you measure all the ingredients.
• Bring them to the orchard and pick the apples that you will use for this recipe!!
