Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into thin slices.
Place the sliced apples in a large bowl and toss them with lemon juice and granulated sugar to coat evenly.
In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Cut the unsalted butter into small pieces and add them to the flour mixture.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Spread the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the crumb topping over the apples, ensuring an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
