🥘Ingredients

For the Filling

6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp cornstarch

For the Topping

1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
3Toss gently to ensure the apples are evenly coated.
4Transfer the apple mixture to a greased 8×8-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
5In a separate bowl, mix together oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
6Add the cubed butter to the dry ingredients.
7Using your fingertips, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
8Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish.
9Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly around the edges.
10If the topping begins to brown too quickly, cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil.
11Remove the apple crisp from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
12This allows the filling to set slightly.
13Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
