This was the best apple crisp recipe on KZbin hands down , and I been on here all day watching them lol

[@bobjordan9]

I made this according to the recipe, except: 1) I added a bit of salt to the topping mix, and 2) added nutmeg to the topping mix. The result was outstanding. Next time I make this, I’ll amp up the cinnamon. This is a real winner.

[@Khalrua]

I’ll do you one more, I add 2 tablespoons of wheat germ for extra richness

[@FNG223]

This turned out amazing. I made 2 batches, one made this way (Except for the store didn't have grape nuts, so I substituted granola and chopped pecans) and a batch of peach crisp made with the raw fruit/cold butter method. This allowed for empirical testing. The pre-cooking of the apples in the sauce is genius, it makes the consistency perfect. I added too much water, and it didn't matter, it just made it necessary to cook the apples and sauce a bit longer. Chef John never disappoints!

[@sumeetkaur8024]

Nice to know that.. coz i was also wondering to use Granola as i couldnt find grape nuts at store

[@waynes866]

Yeah. Grape Nuts is a non-starter for me. Finely chopped nuts is a good call.

[@joshsmith2689]

I love watching your videos as they are educational and inspiring for anyone who loves food. Your commentary is great too. Thank you!

[@cybercicada]

Love the sound of your voice and the efficiency of your teaching! Tried this recipe and although I was skeptical about the grape nuts, it was indeed the secret to crispy/crunchy! Thanks for sharing this recipe. By the way... GREAT video quality!

[@SkittlesLuver38]

I loved the...voice over was it? Idk but you sounded really cheery and casual, it made the video so enjoyable to watch. I am going to try this for fall!

[@poulthomas469]

That casserole dish has gotten a LOT of use over the years.😀 Made this today and it is so good. Added a pinch of salt +more spices with a little less sugar. didn't have any Lemon so used a little Apple Cider Vinegar. Might try and soften the grape nuts a little the next time as they are really really crunchy.

[@hhfama]

Don't have access to grape nuts so I just doubled the oats instead , and it was still delicious and crispy. This was the best recipe I've tried yet for apple crisp. Thank you, Chef John!

[@alhajsaccoh820]

Just made this seeing as apple crisp is my favorite dessert, and the family went nuts. Great recipe

[@PowellGuide]

Thank you for your excellent channel. I have tried several of your recipes with great success. In my version, I didnt have Grape Nuts but used granola instead. Great crunch! Also added a 1/4 cup of dried cranberries rehydrated in brandy and water 50/50. Also used brandy in place of water when cooking the apples. Fantastic results. Thanks again Chef John.

[@humahasan4537]

The grape nuts makes this exceptional!! That crunch is amazing even in leftovers the next few days.

[@TheDevilDarling]

I had grape nuts a few days ago for the first time and it made me think of this recipe. They were served for breakfast on top of natural greek yoghurt with honey and sliced bananas. I dont know where the restaurant got them from because we're in the UK but it was delicious. I can see why they would be great in an apple crisp.

[@floordior33]

My mom used to make apple crisp using a jar of applesauce! It was the '70's after all. ;)

[@mumbunguaable]

Sounds like Chef John channeled his inner Homer Simpson with apple candy piece he grabbed.

[@tomatopotatoes]

You always make me smile ☺️ I really love your personality!

[@JoshJepson]

Ya know... I don't really like cooked apples. Apple pie, ect. but Apple Crisp is actually pretty good. And this looks real tasty.

[@TheRealMonique]

Hi Chef John! I'm from Portugal so I couldn't find the grape nuts and I didn't wanted to use just the oatmeal so I decided to go for GRANOLA ! I was a little reluctant but surprisingly it came out great :D Also I had never ate granola or any type of recipe similar to this one, but I've got to say that this is my favorite dessert right now!, although caloric but who really cares ? So delicious! Thank you so much :)

[@Uniquenailsbybrie]

I just made this two days ago, delicious as always! I was requested to make another today. I like having an excuse to wait your videos!

[@nouexxlog3013]

lol "Mmm, accidental apple candy."

[@CorvusOfMellori]

Sounds like something Homer would say.

[@telecasterbear]

Indeed...Mmmmmm

[@AFGKITTEN]

Sounded like Homer Simpson

[@LauraBellini]

YES! I thought I was the only person who adds Grapenuts to her fruit crisp topping. I have to try your trick with the apples too (nothing is worse in a beautiful apple crisp than uncooked apples). Thanks Chef John, and as always, we enjoy!

[@windermere2330]

Such a great idea! What about adding some chopped sweet and spicy pecans?

[@D34thKnight15]

so normally I need to screw up a recipe a few times to get it but his came out perfect first time, Thanks Chef John!

[@kellyclark7517]

Cool, on the grape nuts! My mother used to eat that cereal and I tried some and I felt like I was chewing on rocks! But she got on a kick of making that grapenut pudding, and that is really good😍 thx John!

[@telecasterbear]

Today I made this, for the second time this fall. I doubled the recipe each time, and that works fine. Today i put in fresh cranberries, along with the apples. I did not saute the fruit in the pan with the sauce. 40 minutes of baking for the double batch cooks the fruit just fine. Yum.

[@ScratchGlass9]

Made this instead of ambrosia at Thanksgiving....the family has me bringing the apple crisp forChristmas !Thank you for your tutorials... Merry Christmas 🎅

[@Yo_mama_wears_combat-boots]

You are the best you tube channel on any planet

[@oluwabukunolamiajewole1808]

Don't know what I'd do without you chef . Had some free apples and decided to give it a try... It turned out great....😀

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

Chef Jean, your vocalization is great. Sounds so fun and easy.

[@obstacle555]

This is a great recipe, John! I doubled the amount of cinnamon and excluded the grape nuts and it was really good!

[@bracita15]

These are the only cooking videos that make me laugh when I least expect it. 😂❤️

[@DeliciousPish]

I made this today. Chef John narrated it in my head. Thank you, Chef John.

[@Korvane]

"its more fun if you sprinkle on a little bit at a time, i can't explain why." your passion for food is amazing,.

[@amazonlady75]

OMG I made this yesterday and was in HEAVEN!!!!!! SOOOOO GOOOOD! My kids loved it and I will be making this again for the holidays, but for now, happy happy joy joy!!! mmmhmmm!

[@mikedunn17]

Honestly thank you so much. Made at x giving here in Canada and was a knockout hit! Big follower of the channel. Thanks for everything you do/post

[@92RememberMe]

This look so yummy. Not sure if I would use the grape nuts myself, but it still looks tasty! I would love it if you would do an empanada filling recipe, I usually Find the dough at my local supermarket but I would love to see what you would d with the filling!

[@lolzlmaorofllol]

just made this with apples and also plums we grew in the garden! thanks chef john!

[@foodwishes]

@humannaturedj My pleasure.

[@planetcool2240]

For the topping: 1/2 cup melted butter 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup oatmeal (rolled oats) 1/2 cup Grape Nuts 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup white sugar For the filling: 5-6 apples juice of 1/2 lemon 2 tbsp butter 1/3 cup white sugar 1/3 cup packed brown sugar 1 tbsp water 1/4 tsp cinnamon

[@lycaousdymkyo8260]

You know, it's been years and this is still my go to apple dish

[@Trueghostgirl]

thank you for taking the time to share your great recipes with us! I will definitely be trying this out very soon ... apple crisp is the best dessert in my humble opinion :) Thank you chef john

[@Khanyi62]

literally learnt here how to make apple crisp with my little brother😻

[@MsDarwinia]

I've made this oh jeeez...maybe 6 times... comes out FABULOUS.... I LOVE YOU CHEF JOHN :-) xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo Dawn

[@backpackmatt]

I substituted raw sugar in this recipe since I'm both a confirmed foodie and health nut. The only problem I came across while making this recipe was the caramelizing of the raw sugar. After heating the sugar for awhile I became impatient because it wasn't reverting to the sauce like texture shown in the video which ultimately behooved me to learn about the science of sugar caramelization. The problem I finally realized was that I wasn't heating the sugar on a high enough setting to allow it to essentially decay from the hard candy form to its subsequent sauce form. At last, I was able to properly caramelize the sugar and finish the recipe which was I must say Applicious! ;)

[@carmendawnallan8871]

I Am Making this,For Dessert Today. Txs Chef John.♡ Happy Valentines Day,To You and Everyone !!.

[@Grover895]

Tried this recipe yesterday (we do have grape nuts in the UK) it was first class! Thank you Chef John.

[@Ollie8974]

This Apple Crisp is delicious, not overly sweet. The topping is my new go to crumble topping.

[@jsbach15]

That's how I remove the core in apples too! Great recipe will definitely try. Thanks foodwishes!

[@mrdinme.4768]

This is just what I was thinking about! Thank you!

[@nancyk7954]

Several days of snow coming our way and I thought, oh well, it's time to make apple crisp. You did not warn me to not test the topping, because if you do, one might eat more of it than you should because its sooooo good. Grape Nuts, I'm glad I live in America where we grow grape nuts. I tried to see how much a box of grape nuts cost 10 years ago. I never got my answer but I did see that there was a grape nut shortage back in 2021.

[@FireCracker3240]

*_Accidental Apple Candy_* was my college band name!

[@eyewandersfoto]

Mmmmmmmmm DOGGY! I *finally* got around to trying out this one - it's been on my short-list forever and ever. I made the whole thing in a 4.5 qt dutch oven - no pan to clean up later. With it with some added blueberries, about 2 Tbls of very finely minced ginger (yes that's a lot) and crushed up sprouted wheat and cornflake cereal (closest I had) instead of grapenuts. KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK! By the way, for recipes like this where we're combining white and brown sugar in the same stage, I love just using white (or raw) sugar and adding a Tbls or two (I usually go a little heavy cuz I love it) of molasses. :D

[@xBabyflowerx]

Looks scrumptious!

[@TheSmilzwitnoe]

my mouth is non stop watering!!

[@harrypotterfreak2009]

I did make it for Thanksgiving, and it was delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and we served it with some vanilla ice cream. My family wanted it again for Christmas dessert =]

[@sjreandeau]

I like the looks of this method. Cant wait to try it!

[@ClaireGoGoGo]

That looks wonderful...drooling...

[@humanscale9325]

I'm making this tomorrow, except I will use a little vanilla extract and I'm making mine in the pressure cooker to get more sauce. yours is probably really great, but it looks dry. water in the pressure cooker, with part sugar and part honey will do. thanks for sharing! smile

[@marthacvd]

I made this a couple of years ago at the Xmas potluck at work and it was a hit!

[@lovingbundleofhate]

I just made this now. Yum in my tum

[@RASTASALLIANS99]

Thank you for sharing this video!.... looks like a great Apple Crumble recipe, cant wait to try it

[@XavierKatzone]

I LOVE grape nuts - esp on oatmeal, to keep it crunchy! Great plan to use two or three apple varieties to maximize taste and texture.

[@marthacvd]

i added walnuts to the crisp and it came out beyond amazing!!!!!!!!!

[@jesseruby6533]

+marthacvd That seems like a better idea than grape nuts.

[@LadyKatyRae]

I FREAKING LOVE GRAVEL! Best breakfast cereal ever. Why didn't i think of using it in my crisps?....Thank you chef. Thank you.

[@rashafran]

Looks yummy will make on Sunday!

[@TheTootsieroll23]

You are amazing! Best Chef ever.

[@luvligal06]

Chef John I love you!! you make everything seem so easy!!

[@concubinage]

Who would dislike chef john's videos? I really wonder...

[@twistedllama]

@hatesit1 you need to be careful of heat when working with sugar. too much will turn it hard or go past caramelizing. lower heat next time and go for it again.

[@JudyRichardson-rw3cj]

Thank-you Chef John I was having a sad day your voice & humour add great recipices cheered me up enormously. Going to try it with some local peaches 🍑 Thanks again Best line ever between you & the first two or three layers on the roof of your mouth

[@Sarah-nc1jb]

I bet peaches were really good, especially with homemade whip cream! 😋

[@xmatez]

Brilliant! I'd only suggest subbing steel-cut oats for rolled to add to the crispiness.

[@LightoftheMoon]

Chef John, just checking in to tell you that I made this today with Tart Michigan apples! It's a long time Chef John, go to, favorite recipe ~ 😊

[@arukaado]

[@whodeenee43]

Just made this!!! MAN!!! It was sooooooo good. Gotta try it people.....:)

[@yuriart]

this is awesome!! i can't find any grape buts, what can i use instead of it? more oatmeal, muesli, or other? thank you

[@donnakeeley7924]

Oatmeal, crushed up Kashi cereal, or rice crispies. Its called Grape Nuts. Look for it on Amazon.com

[@humannaturedj]

Yes, Chef John is an amazing cook. But..idk what it is about him. I could be in the worst mood ever and hearing his voice brightens my day. For that, I LOVE you, Chef.

[@foodwishes]
