Apple Cranberry Crisp - sweet apple and slightly tart dried cranberries covered with crispy almond topping. This easy and delicious Apple Cranberry Crisp is a perfect Thanksgiving celebration.
APPLE CRANBERRY CRISP
May I suggest one of the most popular Fall desserts: a fruit crisp. My version, Apple Cranberry Crisp, is one of the easiest desserts to make, yet very comforting and delicious. Sweet apples, slightly tart dried cranberries - baked under almond, oats, brown sugar topping. Use your favorite baking dish and serve this treat during holidays.
I wouldn't limit this dessert to Thanksgiving. I think it would be great for Christmas too. The topping couldn't be simpler to make: just mix all ingredients in a bowl and sprinkle evenly over the filling. The scent that whiffs through the house while the crisp is baking is fabulous. I hope you will enjoy it! For a gluten-free version, check out my Berry Crisp.

I love fruit crisps, Anna! And apple is my very favorite kind. I don't think I've ever added cranberries. Must try!

Lovely apple crisp, Anna! It just isn't autumn without apple crisp, is it? I make at least 3 of these per year (yes, with fresh cranberries!), but have only made 1 this year and didn't for the blog...which needs to be done since my photography wasn't very good in the beginning. I usually make mine with pecans and can't wait to try your recipe with almonds! Pinning tonight (of course!) xo

Thank you so much, Stacy! I always stock up with fresh cranberries around holidays and keep them in the freezer through out the year. 🙂 Thank you for pinning!
