Cast Iron Skillet Apple Crisp

"This Cast Iron Skillet Apple Crisp caramelizes the apples on the stovetop before they ever hit the oven, which gives the filling a depth of flavor a regular baked crisp never gets close to. It's still a one-pan dessert that comes together in about 45 minutes, but it tastes like you worked harder than you did. The first time I made apple crisp in a cast-iron skillet, I couldn't believe the difference. Same ingredients, same topping. But starting the apples on the stovetop with the butter and brown sugar gives them this caramelly flavor you just don't get when you dump everything in a baking dish and bake it. It's hard to explain exactly. It's just good."
