Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 6 cups apples, peeled and sliced Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour for thickening
For the Topping
  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • a pinch salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and flour. Ensure the apples are well-coated and then transfer them into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
  3. In another bowl, mix rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, melted butter, ground cinnamon, and salt until crumbly and well-combined. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Baking
  1. Evenly spread the oat mixture over the top of the apple layer, ensuring all apples are covered.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are bubbling and the topping is golden brown and crispy.
  3. Allow the Apple Crisp to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider using nutmeg or allspice. For gluten-free, substitute regular flour with almond or coconut flour and butter with coconut oil.
