Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, toss 4 cups peeled and sliced tart apples with 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tsp ground cinnamon until the apples are evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Transfer the apple mixture to a greased 8x8-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer.
  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats with 1/3 cup cold cubed unsalted butter. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples.
  5. Step 5: Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbly and tender. Let cool slightly before serving.
