Warm cinnamon-spiced apples are baked under a golden, buttery oat and brown sugar crumble.
Ingredients :
6 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
½ cup brown sugar packed
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¾ cup rolled oats
½ cup finely chopped pecans or coconut, or walnuts, optional
⅛ teaspoon salt optional
6 cups sliced Granny smith apples peeled and cored, sliced ¼-inch thick
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Directions :
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
In a medium bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, ¼ cup flour, and cinnamon. Mix with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture sticks together and forms pea-sized crumbs. Stir in the oats and pecans or coconut (if using).
In a large bowl toss the sliced apples with sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
Place the apples in a 9×9 or 2qt baking dish and sprinkle with the oat topping.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden and the apples are tender. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
