Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 0.33 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups old-fashioned oats
- 0.75 cups brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or similar size and set aside.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large bowl.
Add the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss everything together until the apples are evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt.
Add the cubed cold butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apples in the baking dish, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly.
Remove the apple crisp from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
