Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 6 cups sliced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well) Use apples that hold their shape well during baking.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Crumble Topping
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour For gluten-free, use gluten-free flour.
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened Can be replaced with coconut oil or vegan butter for a vegan option.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss to coat the apples evenly.
  3. Transfer the apple mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
  4. In another bowl, mix the flour, oats, brown sugar, and softened butter. Use your fingers or a fork to combine until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the apple mixture, ensuring even coverage.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling.
Serving
  1. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delightful apple crumble with vanilla ice cream for an unforgettable experience!

Notes

For the best texture, allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving; this helps it set up. Avoid overmixing the crumble topping and ensure to select apples that hold their shape during baking.
