Apple Dew Crisp

This recipe is a combination of two recipes that I really like.  I just took a Apple Crisp recipe and tweaked it a little bit by adding in some of the ingredients of the Apple Dew recipe.  We all really enjoyed it.  I hope your family will too.

Ingredients

• 2 Granny Smith apples cored, peeled and chopped
• 3/4 cup Mountain Dew (diet or regular)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1/2 cup sifted flour
• 1 cup quick or old-fashioned oats
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine

 Core and peel your apples and chop into small pieces.  Place in a bowl with the Mountain Dew.  Stir and refrigerate for 6-8 hours.  

 When apples are about ready, lightly butter an 8-in square pan and preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix dry ingredients together in a medium sized bowl; blend in melted butter and vanilla.  

 Press 2/3 of mixture into bottom of pan.  

 Cover with apple mixture.  Sprinkle with remaining oat mixture.  Bake in 350 degree oven for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned.

 Cool; cut into squares; serve topped with ice cream or whipped cream.

Makes 8-10 servings.
