Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, the flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and orange zest. Add the butter and rub it in with your fingers until evenly mixed.
- Step 2
In a 13-by-9-by-2-inch baking dish, toss together the apples, dates, pecans and lemon zest. Cover with the oat mixture. Bake until the apples are tender and the top is browned, about 45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Yum! This is a slightly updated traditional crisp. Given my pantry, I used dried cranberries instead of dates (worked well); also left out the pecans (not a problem but they would have been excellent -- next time I'll run to the store). Added 1.5 inches fresh ginger, grated, to the apples - this was an excellent addition and next time I'll add even more. Leftover crisp is great with plain yogurt. Next time I'll serve this to guests with creme fraiche on top.
This was very good but since the topping is so thick, it ends up to be more of a bar than what you think of as a crisp.
