I made an Apple Crisp last night which was one of the best
desserts I've ever made; I used a basic crisp recipe with
four granny smith apples, but the key additions were 1lb of
fresh strawberries which were sliced and 1lb raspberries
(couldn't get fresh so I used the frozen but thawed them out
first). I had to adjust the amount of topping to 1 1/2 times
the normal recipe, and used a large pyrex baking dish to
cook it in at 375 for 45 minutes.
The only drawback was that the berries gave off so much
liquid that once I cut a couple pieces out I had to drain
off all that purple reddish juice; I added no liquid to the
recipe except for a little lemon juice to keep the apples
from turning brown so I wasn't expecting all that liquid. I
poured off all that juice into a cup and once it cooled down
I drank it and it was delicious; I could have made one hell
of a smoothie or milkshake out of that juice.
I topped it with some good vanilla bean ice cream and a
little whipped topping.
