Should Apple Crisp Be Baked Covered or Uncovered?

[Jen1409]

this is the recipe

Quick Apple Crisp
5 Granny Smith apples
1 package (9 ounces) yellow cake mix
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/2 cup chopped nuts
Vanilla ice cream or thawed, frozen whipped topping (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F. Peel, core and slice apples using Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer. Cut apples in half. Place apples in Deep Dish Baker. Combine cake mix, sugar, cinnamon, butter and nuts in bowl. Mix until crumbly. Sprinkle mixture evenly over apples. Bake 35-40 minutes or until apples are tender. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped topping.



Is it supposed to be cooked covered or uncovered in the oven?

I would say uncovered. You would hate to add extra moisture into the dessert. Also it usually says when to cover it.By the way, this looks like a great recipe!

This is an old PC recipe, I recognize it from the first time I did PC years ago.

Cook it uncovered. It doesn't crisp up if you do it in the microwave.

I covered it :blushing: which is why I was asking. Oops. Now I know how do it for a party in 2 weeks though. I was doing a test run, good thing I did it though
