Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and core the apples, leaving the base intact to create a small hollow for the filling. If desired, peel the top third of each apple for presentation.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Divide this mixture evenly among the hollowed apples, filling their cores.
Place a small pat of butter (about 1/2 teaspoon) on top of the sugar mixture in each apple.
Arrange the filled apples in a baking dish. Pour about 1/4 inch of water into the dish to keep the apples moist while baking.
In another bowl, prepare the topping by combining the flour, rolled oats (if using), remaining butter, a pinch of salt, and a sprinkle of brown sugar. Mix with your fingers until crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture over the apples.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden.
While the apples bake, whip the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. This will be the 'whup' portion of the dish.
Once baked, remove the apples from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Serve each warm apple with a generous dollop of the whipped cream on top, and enjoy your 'Apple Whup and Bakes'!
