Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 6 cups apples peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
For the Topping
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cut into cubes

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • Peeler
  • Knife
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss to coat the apples evenly.
  3. Pour the apple mixture into the 9x13 inch baking dish.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
  5. Add the cold butter cubes to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish.
  7. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbly.
  8. Let the apple crisp cool slightly before serving. It is best served warm.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
