Equipment

9x13-inch baking dish
Mixing bowls
Knife
Cutting board

Ingredients

6 cups apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (mix of sweet and tart)
1/4 cup brown sugar (for filling)
1 tbsp all-purpose flour (for filling)
1 tsp cinnamon (for filling)
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
1/2 cup brown sugar (for topping)
1 tsp cinnamon (for topping)
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish (or 8x8 for a thicker crisp).
In a large bowl, toss sliced apples with brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Spread evenly in the baking dish.
In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle topping evenly over apples. Bake 40–45 minutes until topping is golden and filling is bubbly. Cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Mix apple varieties for the best balance of sweet and tart. To avoid a soggy topping, drain apples well and toss with flour before baking. Can be assembled ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking.
