Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsalted nuts (optional, such as walnuts or almonds)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and all-purpose flour.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter.
Stir in the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract into the melted butter until well combined.
Pour the butter mixture over the oat and flour mixture and stir until the ingredients are evenly coated and crumbly.
If using nuts, coarsely chop the unsalted nuts and fold them into the crumble mixture.
Spread the crumble mixture evenly in a thin layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on the baking sheet. The crumble will crisp up as it cools.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Serve as a topping for desserts or enjoy as a snack.
