Apple Crisp with Almonds

Last night I made Apple Crisp with Almonds to use up the remaining apples from our trip to the orchard. I followed the recipe except for the process, and I used slightly less lemon zest and I subbed some rolled oats for the flour (so I guess I did change it quite a bit...par for the course). We were lacking in the bowl department, so I put all the apples in the baking dish, then mixed up the rest of the filling ingredients and sprinkled it on the apples as uniformly as I could. I also forgot the almonds for the topping until I sprinkled it on, so I just spread the almonds on top.
I thought it turned out really yummy. I tasted all of the subtle flavors of the lemon zest and almond extract wrapped around the apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and crumbly topping!
