Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Granny Smith apples
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar (for topping)
- 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel, core, and thinly slice the Granny Smith apples. Place the slices evenly into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples and toss well to coat.
In another bowl, prepare the topping by mixing the rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/2 cup brown sugar.
Cut in the softened unsalted butter using a fork or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the vanilla extract to the topping mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
Spread the topping mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Remove the apple crisp from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
