Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 whole Apples (Granny Smith or similar)
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Rolled oats
- 100 grams Unsalted butter (cold and diced)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a baking dish (about 9x9 inches) and set it aside.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the granulated sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the apples. Toss to combine and coat the apple slices evenly. Set aside.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, diced butter to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the mixture until it forms a coarse, crumbly texture.
Transfer the prepared apples to the greased baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples, ensuring all apples are well covered.
Bake the crumble in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling underneath.
Remove from the oven and let the apple crumble cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
