Description

This apple crumble has a layer of sliced apples topped with buttery crumbs, baked until apples are tender and topping is golden and crisp.

Ingredients

4 cups sliced peeled Granny Smith apples
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 cup white sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2 Pile sliced apples in an 8x10-inch casserole dish. Mix water and lemon juice together and sprinkle over apples.
3 To make the crumble topping: Combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix well using an electric mixer. Add butter pieces and mix until mixture is crumbly; sprinkle evenly over apples.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until apples are bubbling and crumble topping is golden brown and crisp, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly to thicken before serving in bowls.
