Ingredients

Crumble Topping:

2/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup salted butter, cut into small pieces

Apple filling:

3-4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced

3 Tablespoons salted butter, melted

2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 Tablespoon lemon juice

3 Tablespoons milk

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Crumble Topping:

In a medium size bowl combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and baking powder. Add butter and cut in with a pastry blender or fork until well combined. Refrigerate while you prepare the apple filling.

Apple Filling:

In a small bowl stir together melted butter and flour until smooth. Add lemon juice, milk and vanilla and stir. Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Pour butter mixture over apples and toss to coat. Pour apple mixture into the Emile Henry Ruffled Square Baker and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle crumble topping evenly over the apples.

Bake for about 35 minutes or until golden brown and top is set. Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Serve with vanilla ice cream and homemade caramel sauce, if desired.
