Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 medium honeycrisp apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup light brown sugar (for topping)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt 4 tablespoons of butter.
Add the sliced apples to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften slightly and begin to caramelize.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon over the apples, stirring to coat them evenly.
Add the cranberries to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they soften and burst slightly. Remove the skillet from heat and set it aside.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, and salt.
Pour the melted butter into the oat mixture and stir until it forms a crumbly texture.
Transfer the apple and cranberry mixture to a greased 9-inch square baking dish or an equivalent oven-safe dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the fruit layer in the baking dish.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
