Aunt Grace's Apple Crisp

"I don't know who Aunt Grace is, but her nut-topped Apple Crisp looks yummy!"--Ronnie
[6 to 8 apples]
1 egg
3/4 cup sugar
3 dessert spoons* flour [2 to 2-1/2 tablespoons]
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup nuts
1-1/2 cup chopped nuts
whipped cream

[Slice apples into greased] 10-inch deep pie tin. Beat egg. Mix together sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt; add gradually to beaten egg. Mix in vanilla, nuts, and chopped nuts. [Put topping on apples.] Bake at 350 degrees F. for 45 minutes. Serve with whipped cream.

[Number of servings not given, but probably serves 6.]

* A "dessert spoon" is a British measurement, roughly 2 rounded to 2-1/2 scant teaspoons American. The other measurements in this recipe may also be British, but it'll be close enough. Apple crisp is very forgiving.
