Description

A straightforward recipe for a classic apple crumble dessert with a buttery topping.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for apples)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, toss the sliced apples with the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Place the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and rolled oats for the topping.
  4. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
  6. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or custard.
  • You can use Granny Smith or a mix of sweet and tart apples for the best flavor.
