Recipe instruction

Ingredients

  • ▢6 golden delicious apples, peeled and chopped (other varieties can be used, can also be sliced)
  • ▢2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • ▢1 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon, divided
  • ▢1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • ▢1 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • ▢1 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
  • ▢1 3/8 cup all-purpose flour
  • ▢3/4 cup cold unsalted butter, diced into small cubes
  • ▢pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.  Butter an 8×8 baking dish, or spray with non-stick cooking spray.  Set aside.

  • In a mixing bowl, add chopped apples, granulated sugar, 3/4 tsp of the cinnamon and lemon juice.  Stir to combine, then transfer to prepared baking dish.

  • In a separate mixing bowl, add topping ingredients (brown sugar, oats, flour, 1 tsp cinnamon, salt, and diced cold butter).  Use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the oat mixture, using a slight downward twisting motion, until mixture resembled pea-sized crumbs.  Alternatively, you can use two forks or even your hands to cut butter into the mixture.

  • Spread topping over apples in baking dish, and gently pat to even it out.  Bake 40-50 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.

  • Serve warm and enjoy!
