Ingredients
For the Apple Filling:
6 cups apples, peeled and sliced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
For the Crumble Topping:
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar, packed
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, toss the peeled and sliced apples with lemon juice. Add the granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour, mixing until the apples are evenly coated. Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in the rolled oats.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crumble is golden brown.
- Allow the apple crumble to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Notes
For a more complex flavor, consider using a mix of sweet and tart apples.
Feel free to add nuts like pecans or walnuts to the crumble topping for added crunch.
