What Type of Apple Should I Use to Make Apple Crisp?
Granny Smith is my favorite type of apple to use for apple crisp. These apples keep their shape well even after cooking. Their flavor is sweet/tart, which is a nice balance to the sweet topping. However, you can use any type of sweet/tart crisp apple you like. Northern Spy, Braeburn, or Jonagold are all good options. If you use an apple that’s on the sweeter side, add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.
