Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with 1 tbsp butter.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, toss 5 medium peeled, cored, and sliced Granny Smith apples with 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 2 tbsp lemon juice until well coated; transfer to prepared baking dish.
  3. Step 3: In another bowl, combine 3/4 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, and 1/8 tsp kosher salt.
  4. Step 4: Add 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter cubes to the oat mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the apple mixture and bake for 40-45 minutes until topping is golden brown and apples are bubbly and tender.
  6. Step 6: Let cool slightly before serving; pair with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
