Apple Crisp

4 cups sliced or chopped into same size pieces apples, tart is recommend

1/4 cup orange juice (or apple)

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup flour

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 cup butter, 1 stick, semi-soft cut into chunks

Preheat Oven to 375. In a 9-inch pie pan (I use glass) add apples, pour juice over apples. In another medium bowl, combine sugar, flour cinnamon, and nutmeg. Drop the chucks of butter into the flour mixture and with your fingers incorporate the butter with the flour until the mixture is course and chunky. Sprinkle mixture on top of apples. Bake for 45 minutes.

Note: The original recipe called for 3/4 cup of sugar and flour...that is way too many carbs for my family so I cut in way down and it works fine. Most of the ingredients a have on hand all the time, so when apples are looking like they have seen better days--we have a apple crisp for dinner.
