Ingredients
- 6 large apples
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
- Peel, core, and slice the apples and place them in a large bowl. Drizzle the lemon juice over the apples and toss to coat.
- In a separate bowl, mix the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle the mixture over the apples and toss until evenly coated.
- Transfer the apple mixture to the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cold butter cubes, brown sugar, oats, and salt. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the apples in the baking dish, covering them completely.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve warm as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Enjoy!
