Gingersnap Apple Crisp

Preheat oven to 375 F. Grease a shallow 2-quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and zest and 1/3 of the brown sugar. Stir to coat the apples thoroughly. Set aside.

In a food processor or blender, add the cookies and pulse until crumbly. Pour the cookie crumbs into a bowl with the remaining brown sugar and the butter. Using a pastry blender or your hands combine the mixture until clumps start to form, about the size of peas.

Transfer the apples to the baking dish and sprinkle the cookie mixture over the top. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet and bake until bubbling, approximately 55-60 minutes. Remove dish from the oven, set it on a rack and cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Serving suggestion: Top with freshly whipped cream or vanilla ice cream!
