Ingredients
Scale
For the Apple Filling:
- 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
For the Oat Topping:
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cut into small cubes)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the apple filling: In a large mixing bowl, toss the sliced apples with granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Transfer the apple mixture to a greased 8×8-inch or similar-sized baking dish.
- Make the oat topping: In another bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, nutmeg, and salt. Add the cold butter and mix until the topping resembles coarse crumbs. Spread the oat mixture over the apples.
- Bake: Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbling. Let cool slightly before serving.
