Apple Cranberry Crisp

It’s autumn so apple crisp is a mandatory dish for me, at least once a week.  This is a quick and easy one to prepare and after an hour in the oven, you have not only made a tasty dessert but filled your home with a great aroma.

Feel free to use your favorite apple – I really like tart apples and almost always use Granny Smiths.  I also like to mix in the cranberries but you could substitute in raisins, pears or other fall fruits.
