Garnish with the fresh greens.
Recipe: Apple Crisp
By: Tbar Southampton
Apple Filling:
Cinnamon Streusel Topping:
Caramel Sauce:
Method:
Peel and core the apples, cut into ½ inch chunks, and toss with the remaining ingredients. Refrigerate overnight. To make the streusel, cut the chilled butter into small cubes and combine with the remaining ingredients. To make the caramel sauce, combine the sugar and corn syrup in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and cook over medium heat until dark golden caramel. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter and cream, then whisk in the crème Fraiche. Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Generously fill a baking dish with the apple filling, it should be slightly mounded. Then liberally sprinkle the streusel on top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the apples are tender; about 45 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking until the topping is golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool a bit. Serve with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.
