Warm Cinnamon Apple Crisp

Ingredients

For the Apple Filling:

• 6 medium Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
• 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon

For the Crisp Topping:

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples together with the lemon juice, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until well coated. Pour into your greased baking dish.
3. In another bowl, mix the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the cold cubed butter into the mixture until it turns crumbly.
4. Scatter the oat topping evenly across the apple layer. Bake for 35 minutes until the apples are completely tender and bubbling, and the top is structural, crispy, and dark gold. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream!
