Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1 inch piece Fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Grate the fresh ginger using a fine grater and add it to the apples.
Add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, the ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Toss the apples until they are evenly coated, then transfer them to a greased 8x8-inch baking dish.
In another bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the rolled oats, flour, salt, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.
Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the crumble mixture, stirring until it forms a coarse, crumbly texture.
Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apples in the baking dish.
Drizzle the honey over the top of the crumble for added sweetness and a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crumble topping is golden brown.
Allow the dessert to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Optionally, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
