An innovative take on a classic! Use a can of sweetened condensed milk that has caramelized inside after being simmered for three hours to spruce up your apple crisp. Though absurd, it actually works!

Ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 5 Granny Smith apples – peeled, cored and sliced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup water
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup melted butter
Instructions
- Place unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a large pot; fill pot with water to cover. Bring water to a simmer, and simmer can for 3 hours, adding hot water as needed to keep can covered. Remove can from water with tongs; allow to cool, about 20 minutes.
- Place apples in a large bowl. Whisk 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a small bowl; stir mixture into apples. Pour apple mixture into a 9×13-inch baking pan. Stir vanilla extract into water in a bowl; sprinkle over apple mixture.
- Open cooled condensed milk carefully. Stir caramelized milk until smooth; drizzle evenly over apple mixture.
- Stir oats, 1 cup flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt together until combined; stir in butter until crumbly. Spread crumble mixture over apples and caramel.
- Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crumble is lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
- You can also cook the sweetened condensed milk in a slow cooker. Place the can in slow cooker with water to cover; cook on High for 1 hour, then on Low for 4 hours. You can cook more than one can at a time; store unopened cans in the pantry.

Very Yummy! Might use a little less caramelized milk next time to reduce sweetness and a little more butter to really crisp up the top. I cooked at 350 for 35 minutes to get it nice and bubbly. i never saw in the recipe what the oven temp should be.
very nice…a bit on the sweet side, maybe i would use less of the caramel next time. Made it without the graham crust…..and used lots of apples… Husband thought it was great!
