Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped apples, 3/4 cup of brown sugar, cinnamon, orange juice, and 1/4 cup of bourbon. Stir until well combined.
2
Transfer the apple mixture to an ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, spreading it evenly.
3
In a separate medium bowl, mix the oats, 1/2 cup of flour, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and softened butter by hand, crumbling them together until the mixture is well combined and forms a crumbly topping.
4
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple layer in the baking dish.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbly.
6
While the crisp is baking, prepare the Bourbon Cream. In a large bowl, combine the whipping cream, 1 tablespoon of bourbon, and powdered sugar. Start mixing with an electric mixer on low speed until the mixture thickens, then gradually increase to high speed and beat until stiff peaks form.
7
Once the apple crisp is done and slightly cooled, spoon the warm apple mixture into shot glasses, filling each about halfway.
8
Top each shooter generously with the creamy bourbon whip.
9
Serve the shooters warm, garnished with an optional splash of bourbon on top for an extra indulgent touch.
