We went apple picking almost a month ago now and believe it or not, I’m still trying to find ways to use up our bushel of apples. This recipe is a twist on the classic apple crisp my Mom used to make. Same ingredients and method, I just added a pumpkin twist to ours and cooked the crisps in individual ramekins as opposed to one big baking dish. I then topped off each ramekin with a sprinkling of pumpkin seeds from this recipe we posted earlier. You can easily make it without the pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin seeds for a traditional apple crisp. Want to take it one step further? A scoop of pumpkin pie ice cream on top is the icing on the cake!
