Cranberry Apple Crisp

1 12 oz. bag of fresh cranberries, washed

1½ cups sugar

½ cup orange juice

5-6 large Granny Smith apples – cored, peeled, and cut into ¼” – ½” slices

1 stick butter, cut into small pea sized cubes

¾ cup rolled oats

¾ cup packed brown sugar

¾ cup all purpose flour

2 tsp. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In large pot add cranberries, orange juice and sugar. Stir everything and cook on medium-high heat for approximately 15 minutes until the cranberries have reduced to a thick sauce consistency. Turn off heat and add sliced apples to the pan and mix everything until all the apple slices have been coated with cranberry sauce. Pour the apple cranberry mixture into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish. Set aside. In a small bowl combine butter, flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Work the mixture with your fingers until it resembles a coarse meal. Sprinkle and distribute the mixture over the baking pan evenly. Bake for 45 minutes. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream while warm. Enjoy!

(Note: I like to double the topping portion of this recipe)
