Ingredients:
For the Apple Filling:
- 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the Crisp Topping:
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish (9×13 inches or a similar size).
- Prepare Apple Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
- Transfer to Baking Dish:
- Spread the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Prepare Crisp Topping:
- In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter.
- Crumble Topping Over Apples:
- Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to combine the butter with the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the apples.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown, and the apples are tender.
- Cool Slightly:
- Allow the apple crisp to cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve:
- Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
- Optional:
