Apple Crisp

This apple crisp is one of my easiest apple dessert recipes. It uses fresh apples, a simple oat topping, and comes together fast on busy days. The apples bake soft and warm, and the topping turns golden and crunchy without much work. Perfect for when you have too many apples or need a quick dessert that still feels homemade.
