Apple Crisp in a Jar

Apple Crisp in a Jar !

Ingredients:

6 to 8 apples ( i used McIntosh) peel and core,  and chop.

1 cup of rolled oats

1 cup packed brown sugar 

1/2 cup flour

1/2 tsp cinnamon 

1/2 cup of softened butter or margarine ( margarine is usually perfect from the tub, soft enough)

Caramel ice cream syrup ( i like Smuckers)

Directions:

1. Peel and core your apples. Then chop into bite size pieces.

2. Spray jars with cooking spray.

3. Fill jars 3/4 full with apples.

4. Squeeze some caramel syrup on the apples

5. In a bowl combine the rolled oats,brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and softened butter. i like to combine with a pastry cutter . Mix until it is a wet crumble , all incorporated.

6. Cover the apples with the crumble.

7. Bake in oven at 375*f for 20-30 min.I put my jars in a muffin tin( be careful its a little rocky but works well.

*** Let cool completely on a wire rack ,then cover and refrigerate.

*** When baked they will shrink, it leaves enough room for ice cream.

*** I made 12,   250ml  mason jars. 

*** I rewarmed at the campsite in the microwave for 1 min 30 seconds ( be careful jars are warm)

**** Also can make same recipe , put in a pie plate. Bake and serve. 

Enjoy  :)
