Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss until the slices are evenly coated. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the oat mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Layer half of the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle half of the crumble topping over the apples, ensuring an even layer.
Add the remaining apples as a second layer, then top with the rest of the crumble mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.
Remove the crisp from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
