With its hearty ingredients and quick prep time, this warm apple crisp makes a smart dessert for any fall night. It reminds me of the recipe my grandmother would serve after our big family seafood dinners. It's absolutely wonderful topped with ice cream. —Julie Peterson, Crofton, Maryland

  • 4 cups sliced peeled tart apples (4-5 medium)
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar, divided
