Prepare your fire pit or grill for medium heat, ensuring you have a steady and controlled flame. You'll need a cast iron skillet for this recipe.
Core and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick wedges, leaving the skin on for a rustic texture.
In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and lemon juice. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining all-purpose flour, rolled oats, the remaining 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Place your cast iron skillet on the heat source and allow it to preheat for 1-2 minutes. Add the apple mixture and cook for 5 minutes, stirring gently, until the apples begin to soften and caramelize slightly.
Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apples in the skillet. Cover the skillet loosely with aluminum foil to trap heat.
Cook over the fire for 15-20 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. Rotate the skillet occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Carefully remove the skillet from the heat using heatproof gloves and let the crisp cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Scoop portions of the warm fire roasted apple crisp into bowls and top with vanilla ice cream, if desired.
