Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, toss 5 medium peeled, cored, and sliced Granny Smith apples with 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, and 2 tbsp lemon juice until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Transfer the apple mixture to a greased 9x9-inch baking dish and drizzle evenly with 1/6 cup honey.
  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/3 cup chopped pecans. Cut in 1/2 cup cold cubed unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples, then drizzle the remaining 1/6 cup honey over the topping for a glossy finish.
  5. Step 5: Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbly and tender.
  6. Step 6: Let cool for 10 minutes before serving warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
