Step-By-Step Directions:
-
Preheat and prep: Heat your oven to 350°F and grease your baking dish thoroughly with a little butter.
-
Season the apples: Place your peeled and sliced apples into a large bowl. Toss them with the cinnamon, nutmeg, and a light sprinkle of brown sugar until the slices are evenly coated.
-
Make the crumble: In a separate mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until it clumps together into coarse crumbs.
-
Assemble the crisp: Spread the seasoned apple slices evenly across the bottom of your prepared baking dish. Scatter the oat crumble topping uniformly over the fruit.
-
Bake until golden: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes. The topping should be a beautiful golden brown and the apples underneath should be bubbly and tender.
-
Serve warm: Remove from the oven and serve warm, ideally topped with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
