Ingredients:

For the Apple Filling:
• 6 medium apples (e.g., Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
For the Crumble Topping:
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup brown sugar, packed
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes

Instructions

1. Prepare the Apple Filling:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with granulated sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and flour. Mix well until the apples are evenly coated.
Transfer the apple mixture to a greased 9-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
2. Prepare the Crumble Topping:
In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the mixture. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. The key is to leave some larger chunks of butter for a more textured topping.
3. Assemble and Bake:
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple filling in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
4. Serve:
Allow the apple crumble to cool slightly before serving. It’s delicious on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
