NANA'S APPLE CRISP 
This was my mother's recipe she copied from the Birmingham News in the 1950s. It is amazing! The topping is fabulous, no need to add oatmeal.

1 (20 oz.) can apples (or 4 cups peeled, sliced fresh apples)
3/4 cup water

TOPPING:

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups brown sugar

Melt butter in skillet, add flour, spices, salt and sugar. Mix with a fork. Spread over the apples and water in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Topping doesn't need to be smooth. Just sprinkle it over the apples and smooth with fingers.

Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. After baking place under broiler for a few minutes to crisp the topping.

Serve plain or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
