This classic delight is perfectly matched with cooler autumn days and cozy sweaters. A perfect treat after apple picking.
Ingredients
Topping
3/4 cup flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes, at room temperatureÂ
1 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Filling
3-4 large apples (peeled or unpeeled)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp of flour
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Preparation
Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C).
Make the topping: in a medium bowl, mix together flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.
Add butter.
Using your hands, work the butter into the dry ingredients. Mix until well incorporated and the mixture holds together when squeezed. Set aside.
Make the filling. In a medium bowl, add white and brown sugars, vanilla, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix.
The apples can be peeled or unpeeled. Up to you. (personally, I don't peel the apples - makes for an easier and quicker recipe!)
Cut the apples in half and remove the core. Thinly slice each half and add to filling mixture. Toss, making sure to thoroughly coat the apples with the mixture.
Pour all the apple mixture into baking dish (8x8" or 9" deep pie dish), pressing it down to nestle the apples into the dish.
Now add the topping - sprinkle it evenly over the apple mixture.
Bake in pre-heated oven for 40-50 minutes until fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving. Top with dollop of ice cream.
