Ingredients

Scale

4 large apples, peeled and sliced

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch of ground nutmeg

Pinch of salt

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly butter a 9-inch square baking dish or an equivalent 2- to 2.5-quart ovenproof dish.

In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Let them rest while you prepare the topping to mingle their flavors and release a few juices.

Make the crumble topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and oats. Add the cold, cubed butter and work it in with your fingertips or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized bits of butter still intact.

Spread the apple mixture in an even layer in the prepared dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples, gently pressing it a touch so it sticks to the fruit and bakes up into beautiful clumps.

Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the apples around the edges are bubbling and fragrant with cinnamon. If the top browns too quickly, tent with a light sheet of foil for the last 5–10 minutes.

Let the crumble rest for 10 minutes before serving. Scoop into bowls and crown with vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
