Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium apples (e.g., Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.33 cup unsalted butter (cold)
- 1 scoop per serving vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish and set aside.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch slices. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of flour to the apples. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and work it into the oat mixture using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples, ensuring full coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling around the edges.
Allow the apple crisp to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Optional: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!
