Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice until evenly coated. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt.
Pour the melted butter over the dry mixture and mash with a fork until crumbly and well combined.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples, ensuring all the fruit is well covered.
Bake the crisp in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling.
Allow the crisp to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
