🕒 Prep Time: 15 min | Cook Time: 45 min | Total Time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
🍏 For the Apple Filling:
- 8 medium apples, peeled and chopped (Granny Smith + Honeycrisp)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1/4 tsp salt
🍯 For the Crumble Topping:
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
- 1 cup rolled oats
Optional Add-ins: chopped pecans or walnuts, caramel drizzle, vanilla ice cream
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
- Peel and chop apples into bite-sized pieces. A mix of tart and sweet apples adds great flavor depth!
- In a large bowl, toss the apples with brown sugar, flour, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and salt until evenly coated. 🍎
- Spread the apple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- In another bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the topping.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Mix in oats (and nuts if using), then sprinkle the crumble evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling around the edges. 🧡
- Let cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm — ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel.
Pro Tips 🍴
- Apple Choice: Granny Smith for tartness + Honeycrisp for sweetness = perfect balance.
- Make Ahead: Assemble a few hours early and refrigerate. Bake just before serving.
- Storage: Cover and refrigerate leftovers up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven for crispiness.
