This recipe is so so easy and yet so so delicious and the perfect Autumn dessert. When apples are in season I buy a lot and this is one of my go-to recipes. The tartness of the cranberries is a nice balance to the apples and sweet spice scented crisp topping! Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream or just plain, anyway you serve it this is sure to be a hit!
