amish apple crisp
This is an excellent old-school take on Apple Crisp using a hot syrup poured over the apples for additional richness and flavor. You can really taste the old-fashioned goodness. For the photo shown, I've used Granny Smith apples with a few yellow transparent apples from our family hobby farm.
