Instructions
Heat oven to 350F. Lightly spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.
In food processor, place flour, oats, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar and salt. Cover; process until combined.
Add butter. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses until mixture is consistency of coarse crumbs. Set aside.
In large bowl, mix all filling ingredients.
Pour into baking dish. Crumble topping over apple mixture.
Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar and the water over medium-high heat until bubbles form and mixture is simmering. DO NOT STIR. Occasionally lift saucepan from heat and gently swirl mixture while sugar is heating. In about 10 minutes, sugar will start to caramelize. Simmer until mixture is a rich, dark amber color. Reduce heat to low. Stir in whipping cream with whisk until mixture is blended and smooth.
Remove saucepan from heat; pour sauce into heatproof jar or bowl. Stir in vanilla, 3 tablespoons whiskey and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Refrigerate until serving time (sauce will thicken as it cools).
Serve apple crisp warm with ice cream; drizzle with caramel sauce.
Garnish with thyme sprigs.
