Ingredients
  

For the Apple Filling

  • 6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 6 cups; mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar for sweetness
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour to thicken the juices
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon for that warm spice kick
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice to brighten the flavors

For the Crisp Topping

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats for texture
  • 0.75 cup all-purpose flour to bind it together
  • 0.75 cup brown sugar packed, for a caramel-y sweetness
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon because more cinnamon is always better
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter (1 stick; cold and cut into small cubes)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples with granulated sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss until apples are well coated.
  • Transfer the apple mixture to a greased baking dish.
  • In another bowl, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and cold butter until crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the apples are bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
