Ingredients
6 large apples (mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into uniform half-inch thick wedges.
Toss apple slices with granulated sugar and one teaspoon of cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
Spread the fruit mixture evenly into a greased nine-by-nine inch baking dish.
Combine oats, flour, brown sugar, and the remaining cinnamon in a separate bowl.
Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or clean fingers until crumbly.
Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples.
Bake for 45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Notes
Ensure butter stays cold until the very last moment to achieve the best crumb texture. You can substitute coconut sugar for granulated and a gluten-free flour blend if preferred. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
