Caramel Apple Crisp

I was going through my recipe file the other day and realized that I must have hundreds of recipes that I have filed away and intended to try, but never did, so now I’m on a quest to really work through those recipes and make as many as I can.  Caramel Apple Crisp is one of the recipes I found that was given to me years ago and I wish I had tried it sooner, it’s so good!

This is a very quick and easy apple crisp recipe that goes together fast and is so good served with a scoop of ice cream!
