Apple Crisp

This is a really simple recipe I got from Bethany. I am not a huge fan of apple pie, apple crisps etc. - I think it's because I have had a lot where the apples are not soft and I do not like that texture. Anyway, this always comes out perfect.

4 c. apples
1 t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
¼ c. water
1/3 c. butter
¾ c. flour
1 c. sugar

Mix apples, salt, cinnamon and water and put into buttered 8x8 pan. Mix butter, flour and sugar with a pastry blender and put on top of apples. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream.

The inspiration

For a couple of years I have been typing up recipes and dreaming of getting them all into a book - one place that I can look for all of our go-to recipes we've compiled over the first 15 years of our marriage. But I hit a slump and became discouraged that this was never going to happen. Until the other night when I was talking to my friends Julie and Eric and they loved the idea, and Eric suggested that instead of a book, I create a blog! This way I could post what I already have typed up, it would all be in one spot, and maybe someday if I ever do actually get it put into a cookbook, it will be ready!
