Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, fresh cranberries, granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of the flour, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until the fruit is evenly coated.
Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup of flour, oats, brown sugar, and cold butter cubes.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, mix the topping ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the vanilla extract to the topping mixture and toss lightly to distribute.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the crisp from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
