Ingredients

Filling

  • 4 large apples {thinly sliced}-I used Granny Smith
  • cup brown sugar {packed}
  • 2 Tablespoon flour
  • ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Crumble Topping

  • ¾ cup brown sugar {packed}
  • cup flour
  • cup oatmeal {I used quick cook}
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter {room temperature}

Optional Toppings: Vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce

Instructions

Filling

  • In a large bowl combine sliced apples, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.  Stir to coat apples and pour into a greased 10" cast iron skillet.

Oatmeal Crumble

  • In a medium bowl combine brown sugar, flour, oatmeal, cinnamon and salt.  Stir until ingredients are incorporated.  Add room temperature butter to ingredients and using a fork, work the butter into the dry ingredients being sure to not over mix or you will end up with a paste.  Pour over the top of the apples and spread out.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.  Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel topping {if desired}.  Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • To freeze crisp:  Bake in a disposable pan and cover well.  Freeze for up to 3 months.  Defrost at room temperature for 1 hour or in the fridge for 4-5 hours.
  • For added crunch, add a 1/4 cup of chopped pecans to the crumble mixture.
