Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Apples
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick slices.
In a large bowl, combine the apple slices with granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are well-coated.
Transfer the apple mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by combining all-purpose flour, old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, and salt.
Cut in the chilled, diced unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the vanilla extract until evenly distributed throughout the crumble mixture.
Spread the oat mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, and enjoy your nut-free apple crunch!
