Ingredients

Scale

For the Apple Filling

  • 6 to 8 medium apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Crisp Topping

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the apple crisp.
  2. Prepare Apple Filling: In a large bowl, toss the peeled and sliced apples with lemon juice, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and vanilla extract until evenly coated to enhance flavor and prevent browning.
  3. Arrange Apples: Spread the apple mixture evenly in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, creating an even layer for baking.
  4. Make Crisp Topping: In another bowl, combine old-fashioned rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, salt, and melted unsalted butter. Mix well until the mixture becomes crumbly and well combined.
  5. Add Topping: Sprinkle the crumbly oat topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish. Press it down gently to create a compact layer.
  6. Bake: Bake the assembled apple crisp in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly and cooked through.
  7. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the apple crisp cool for at least 10 to 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and make serving easier.
  8. Serve: Serve the apple crisp warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent finish.

Notes

  • Use tart apple varieties such as Granny Smith for a balance of sweet and tart flavors.
  • Ensure apples are sliced uniformly for even cooking.
  • The crisp topping can be doubled if you prefer a thicker crust.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
  • For added texture, consider adding chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the topping.
