Ingredients
Scale
- 6 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine sliced apples, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Toss to coat evenly.
- Step 2: Transfer the apple mixture to a 9-inch baking dish.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt.
- Step 4: Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Step 5: Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
- Step 6: Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Store leftover apple crumble covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but know the topping softens over time.
- For a warm and crispy revival, reheat individual portions in a toaster oven or air fryer rather than the microwave.
- Serve your apple crumble warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream for a truly delightful dessert.
- Don't overmix the crumble topping; leaving small chunks of butter creates delightful pockets of flavor and texture.
