Ingredients
- 6 cups of sliced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss them together until the apples are well-coated. Pour this mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In another bowl, mix together the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, melted butter, and salt until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Spread the oat mixture evenly over the apples, covering them completely.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbly.
- Allow the crisp to cool for a few minutes before serving. It’s amazing on its own, but you can also serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
