Ingredients
Scale
For the Apple Filling:
- 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the Crisp Topping:
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cut into small cubes)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the Apple Filling: In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg until evenly coated. Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Make the Crisp Topping: In another bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and mix until the topping resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples.
- Bake the Apple Crisp: Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbling.
- Serve: Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- You can add chopped pecans or walnuts to the topping for extra crunch.
- Leftovers reheat well in the oven or microwave.
