Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Apples (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith), peeled, cored, and sliced
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cups Gingersnap cookies, crushed
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cups Rolled oats
- 0.25 cups Chopped pecans (optional)
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, crushed gingersnap cookies, melted butter, rolled oats, and chopped pecans (if using). Stir until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the gingersnap crumble evenly over the apples, covering them completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
