Though definitions of crisps and cobblers vary, here we're considering apple crisps to have crumbly toppings of nuts and/or oats while apple cobbler recipes are those with biscuit-like toppers. Call them what you will, you'll find each dessert idea irresistibly delicious. 01 of 07 Walnut Apple Crisp View Recipe Karla Conrad No need to spend hours in the kitchen, this slow cooker apple crisp recipe requires only 10 minutes of prep time. Then a couple hours in the slow cooker and dessert is served. Top with a scoop of ice cream for double the indulgence, if you're so inclined. 02 of 07 Apple-Cranberry Crisp View Recipe Peter Krumhardt Turn your orchard haul into a batch of cranberry-apple crisp in just under an hour. The filling is very slightly sweetened to balance the tart cranberries and let the natural sweetness of the apples shine. Then the classic crumbly topper—oats, sugar, cinnamon, and butter—on this apple crisp with oatmeal adds the more decadent flavors you love. 03 of 07 Grilled Apple Crisp with Porter-Toffee Sauce View Recipe Blaine Moats Get ready, apple crisp aficionados. This unique spin on the classic dessert gets its irresistible, slightly smoky quality from cooking on your grill in one of those handy foil pans. Your favorite porter beer gives the brown sugar sauce a warm, nutty flavor. This is definitely not your usual apple crisp recipe. 04 of 07 Classic Apple Crisp View Recipe Andy Lyons You can't beat a classic.

Top each serving with the rich and creamy vanilla bean custard sauce to take it up a level and have everyone declaring this the best apple crisp recipe they've tasted! 05 of 07 Granny Smith Cobbler with White Cheddar Biscuits View Recipe Blaine Moats Tart Granny Smith apples. Warm cinnamon and balsamic sauce. Sweet-salty white cheddar biscuits. Each bite of this home-style apple cobbler recipe has complex flavor dimensions that keep us coming back for bite after bite.

How to Make Fruit Cobblers 06 of 07 Pear, Apple, and Cranberry Cobbler View Recipe Brie Passano This apple cobbler idea adds two more fall fruit favorites to the mix. Pears and cranberries complement the apples and citrus flavors in the filling. Rustic biscuits with a bit of cornmeal create the topper that bakes to golden perfection in your casserole dish. 07 of 07 Choose-a-Fruit Crisp View Recipe Mike Dieter Here's a fruit crisp recipe for any season. In summer use peaches or apricots. Come fall, choose pears or apples. Or, use frozen fruit when you're craving a crisp recipe with fruit that's out of season.
