I think this is the best one I've ever had.

APPLE CRISP

4 c. peeled, cored, sliced baking apples (about 6 medium)
2/3-3/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. rolled oats
3/4 t. cinnamon
3/4t. nutmeg
1/3 c. soft butter

Heat oven to 375F. Place sliced apples in greased pan (8x8x2" square
pan or 10x6x1 1/2" or 1 1/2 qt. baking dish). Blend remaining
ingredients until mixture is crumbly. Spread over apples. Bake 30-35
minutes or until apples are tender and topping is golden brown. Serve
warm with cream, ice cream, or Hard Sauce. Serves 6. (From Betty
Crocker's New Picture Cookbook, First Edition, 1961.) Notes: I find
any apples work. I particularly like McIntosh because that's my
favorite apple. Also you can do this with pears or a mixture of apples
and pears, which is excellent. I would use the same recipe for peach
crisp or just about any fruit crisp you want to try. I always eat it
with cream or ice cream, but it's really good plain, too.
