Description

A delightful apple crumble that blends tender, spiced apples with a crunchy, buttery topping for the perfect dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.2 kg mixed apples (e.g., Granny Smith, Gala, Honeycrisp)
  • 100 g granulated sugar (1/2 cup)
  • 60 g light brown sugar (1/3 cup, packed)
  • 15 ml lemon juice (1 tbsp)
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 20 g cornstarch (2 tbsp)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 150 g rolled oats (1 cup + 2 tbsp)
  • 120 g all-purpose flour (1 cup)
  • 100 g brown sugar (1/2 cup, packed)
  • 100 g unsalted butter (7 tbsp, cold, cubed)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Peel, core, and slice apples into 6–8 mm (1/4–1/3 inch) slices.
  2. Toss sliced apples with granulated sugar, light brown sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, cornstarch, and salt. Let sit for 5 minutes to macerate.
  3. Transfer the apple mixture to a 23 x 33 cm (9 x 13 inch) baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. Combine rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, pinch of salt, and vanilla in a bowl. Add cold, cubed butter and mix until coarse crumbs form.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the apples. Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 10 minutes, then reduce to 175°C (350°F) and bake for an additional 30–35 minutes.
  6. Allow to rest on a wire rack for 10–15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream. To prevent soggy filling, allow apples to sit with cornstarch before baking.
