- "This is the best apple crisp I've ever had! It's the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and the topping is just the right amount of crunchy."

Special Precautions and Tips:
- To prevent the crisp from burning, cover the edges of the baking dish with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
- If you don't have caramel sauce, you can make your own by combining 1 cup (200 g) of sugar and 1/4 cup (60 ml) of water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns a deep amber color. Carefully add 1/2 cup (120 ml) of heavy cream and stir until smooth.
