The Amazing Fall Dessert

I am still here and blogging about the food and sharing my recipes with you. I am still busy with work. So just be patient with me. 

This amazing Fall dessert is so easy and simple. You will love this one. 

My brother, my future sister in law and I went to the farm where they had pumpkin patch and apple orchards and many fun things there. It was my first time going to the pumpkin patch and pick out the pumpkin. I really love it. Then we did our first time picking the apples from the orchard. I was so exciting to eat those natural apples from the orchard than to buy from the store. 

I was tried to figure out what to use them. I sometime don't have time to eat them due to my work or I kept forget it. So I found this recipe that is called Dark and Stormy Apple Crisp. It is contain with dark rum. I thought I could make some. However, I don't have the rum in the house. Since I live in Kentucky, there is a lot of bourbon. So I decided to try to use it. Guess what, it came out amazing. Here is the recipe that I want to share with you. It is amazing. 

I could called it Bourbon Apple Crisp or other name, I can't think of one. You could help me out with one. 

Ingredient
- 5 Apples (Granny could be best)
- 1 lime, zested and juiced (bottle lime is fine)
- 1 1/2 TBSP freshly grated ginger (Ground ginger is fine but use less, I recommond 3 tsp)
- 1/3 cup Rum (Bourbon is fine but think to match the flavor of apple)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup quick-cooking oats
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar (light is fine)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted

Direction
1. Peel, core, and slice five apples, then add into a large bowl. Add lime juice and zest, grated ginger, rum, and granulated sugar, and mix thoroughly until apples are coated
2. For crumble, Stir together flour, oats, and brown sugars. Melt the butter in microwave or stove. Then pour into the flour mixture and stir until combined
3. Pour the apples into the greased 13 x 9 inch pan or smaller which is fine. Then pour the crumbles on the top of the apples to cover it. Bake at 350 Fdegree until crisp is golden and apples are softened, about 45 minutes. 

So Easy!
