Ingredients
- 8 medium apples, peeled, cut into 1-inch chunks that are 1/4-1/2 inch thick (about 10 cups, 1.2kg)
- 1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar (100g)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, spoon and leveled (31g)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) salt
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, spoon and leveled (94g)
- 3/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar (150g)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil, cold and cubed (1 stick, 115g)
- 1 cup old-fashioned whole oats (80g)
- salted caramel and vanilla ice cream for serving optional
Instructions
- Set your oven to 350°F (177°C) and lightly coat a 9×13-inch baking dish or any 4-quart dish with a non-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the filling, then spread this mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- In a medium-sized bowl, blend the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Use a pastry blender or fork to integrate the butter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Stir in the oats. Evenly distribute this mixture over the apple filling.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges and the top has turned a golden brown color. Once done, take it out of the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 5 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy it warm, at room temperature, or chilled, paired with salted caramel and/or vanilla ice cream if desired.
- Keep any leftovers refrigerated for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Consider using whole wheat flour in the topping for a healthier twist.
- Experiment with different apple varieties to find your preferred balance of sweetness.
- Enhance the flavor by adding lemon juice to the apple filling mixture before baking.
