Apple-Cranberry crisp is a delightful dessert that combines the sweet and tart flavors of apples and cranberries. The result is a warm and comforting dessert with a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess, often served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream to enhance the overall indulgence.

Ingredients

2 pounds Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and thinly sliced
¾ cup cranberries
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Topping

⅓ cup quick-cooking oats
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup butter, cut into pieces
½ cup chopped pecans

Directions

Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.) Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. 
Mix apples, cranberries, white sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Place in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. 
In the same bowl, combine oats, flour, and brown sugar for topping. Add butter pieces and mix with a fork until crumbly. 
Stir in pecans. Sprinkle topping over apples in the baking dish. 
Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and topping is golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes.
