Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Add granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss until evenly coated.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and set aside.
In a separate bowl, make the crumble topping by combining all-purpose flour and brown sugar. Add the cold, cubed butter and rub it into the dry ingredients with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Stir the rolled oats into the crumble mixture.
Spread the apple mixture evenly in a greased baking dish. Scatter the chopped chocolate over the apples.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples and chocolate.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the apples are tender.
Allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
