Description

A classic dessert that perfectly balances sweet and tart flavors with a rich apple filling and a buttery oat topping.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups rolled oats, divided
  • 6 cups sliced apples
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup + 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, slightly softened, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a small baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Add 1 cup oats to a food processor. Blend until it resembles flour. Set aside.
  3. Toss apples with 2 tablespoons of oat flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, cinnamon, and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Cut 2 tablespoons of butter into cubes. Toss with apples. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  4. Add remaining oat flour, oats, salt, brown sugar, and cinnamon to a medium bowl. Use fingers to cut butter into the flour until the mixture is crumbly.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble on top of the apples. Bake until brown and crispy, about 45 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

For best results, mix sweet and tart apple varieties for a more complex flavor.
