Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into 1/4-inch thick slices. Place the slices in a large mixing bowl.
Add the lemon juice, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon to the apples. Toss to coat evenly and transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.
Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool slightly for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the best experience.
