Baked Apple Crisp

Ingredients

• 6 cups peeled, sliced apples (about 6 medium apples, a mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for filling)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for filling)
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for filling)
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
• 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 F and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons flour until evenly coated.
3. Spread the apple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
4. In a separate bowl, mix the oats, 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt together.
5. Pour the melted butter over the oat mixture and stir with a fork until the mixture looks like clumpy, moist crumbles that hold together when squeezed.
6. Scatter the crumble topping evenly over the apples, breaking up any very large clumps with your fingers so it covers the surface fairly evenly.
7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the topping is deep golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling visibly around the edges of the dish.
8. If the topping browns too quickly before the apples are tender, loosely tent the dish with aluminum foil for the remaining bake time.
9. Remove from the oven and let the crisp rest for at least 10 minutes before serving; this allows the bubbling juices to thicken slightly.
10. Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or yogurt if desired.
