Whether itβs for a festive gathering or a quiet evening at home, this easy-to-make apple crisp is guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth and warm your heart.
Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease an 8x8-inch (or similar size) baking dish with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss well to ensure the apples are evenly coated, then transfer the mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
In a medium mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt. Mix together.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingers, a pastry cutter, or two knives, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat crumble topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish, ensuring all the apples are covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35β40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp, and the apples are bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the apple crisp cool slightly for about 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence, if desired.
