I live in apple country and there were a lot of apples this year. This is one good way to use them, and it doesn't take a lot of time to make.

This is THE best apple crisp recipe I have ever had! I added cinnamon to the cornstarch mix and tossed the mix with the apples before putting onto the crust. Can't wait to make this again!!!

I have made this many times for my boys. It's one of their favorites. My husband even likes it. The aroma of the sauce fills the kitchen when it cooks!

So very disappointed with this recipe! It was terrible. I made this for a special occasion and it was like eating from the sugar bowl. YUK! I find it hard to believe this was a "Winning" recipe.

I've made this recipe for years. It is always a success. But about a year ago, my recipe was misplaced. I can't tell you how happy I am to have it again. I've got apples just waiting to jump in. Thank you so very much. blue99mustang

While this recipe was good I found it to be a little too sweet. I will make it again but cut back a bit on the sugar. Maybe it's because I used Honeycrisp apples. My guests raved about it!

Took this to work and my co-workers loved it. I added an extra cup of apples and a teaspoon if cinnamon and a teaspoon of nutmeg to the cornstarch mixture then mixed it with the apples before putting it on the crust. It was awesome!

This is my new go to recipe. I should have doubled it in a 9x13 pan. Took to a get together and had none left for me. May add cinnamon to cornstarch sauce.

I tripled the batch and took small pans to all my elderly friends and they all raved about this recipe!
