Ingredients
Scale
For the Apple Filling:
- 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Crisp Topping:
- ¾ cup old-fashioned oats
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat 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 sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla until evenly coated. Pour into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
- Make the Crisp Topping: In another bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cold butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples.
- Bake: Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling and tender.
