Our most beloved apple recipe of all time, the ultra cozy and nostalgic apple crisp, is a tried-and-true classic. Just ask the more than 6,000 Allrecipes community members who have given it a perfect 5-star rating! Made with pantry staples and a lot of apples, this fall dessert “showcases apples at their best,” according to recipe submitter Diane Kester.

Why We Love It

• It’s a “never-fail” dessert: 5-star reviewer bigal calls this a “never-fail” dessert—and we’re inclined to agree. Whether you’re a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, this is an incredibly simple recipe that’s pretty hard to mess up.

• You’ll need lots of apples: This apple crisp recipe calls for 10 cups of peeled, cored, and sliced apples. Quite a few 5-star reviewers say they made this dessert after visiting orchards in the fall. Take it from them: This is unequivocally the best way to use up a seasonal apple haul before it’s too late.

• It’s easy to make in your 9x13 baking dish: It’s no secret we love a good 9x13-inch recipe here at Allrecipes, from dinner to dessert. The tried-and-true baking dish is truly the key to the most low-maintenance treats out there. Need proof? Just try this top-rated apple crisp recipe for yourself.

• There aren’t any fancy ingredients: If this apple crisp recipe feels like it could’ve come from your grandma’s kitchen, you’re not alone. While most home cooks don’t have a whopping 10 cups of apple slices hanging around their kitchen, apples aren’t particularly hard to come by this time of year. The other ingredients, from oats and flour to sugar and cinnamon, are likely already in your pantry.
