Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, toss 5 large peeled, cored, and sliced Granny Smith apples with 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tbsp ground cinnamon until the slices are evenly coated.
- Step 2: Transfer the apples to a greased 9x9-inch baking dish, spreading them out in an even layer.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt.
- Step 4: Add 1/3 cup cold, cubed unsalted butter to the oat mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Step 5: Sprinkle the oat crumble evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
- Step 6: Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling and tender when pierced with a fork.
- Step 7: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
