Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Apples
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Pecans (optional)
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin, uniform pieces.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Cook the apples for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender but not mushy. Stir in the vanilla extract and remove the skillet from heat. Set aside.
In a separate skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the oats and toast them for 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant.
Stir in the flour, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, salt, and chopped pecans (if using). Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture begins to clump and resembles a crumbly topping.
To assemble, divide the cooked apples into serving bowls and sprinkle the oat crumble mixture generously on top.
Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
