Apple crisps are best enjoyed soon after they’re made. For maximum freshness, store any leftovers on a plate at room temperature for 24 hours.

You can also refrigerate the apple crisp in an airtight container for 5 to 6 days.

You can freeze apple crisp. Let it come to room temperature, then store in an airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months.
