Ingredients

• 6 medium green tomatoes
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cup light brown sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Wash and core the green tomatoes. Slice them into thin wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and lemon juice to the tomatoes. Toss thoroughly to coat all the slices evenly.

Step 4

Transfer the tomato mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 5

In a separate mixing bowl, prepare the crumb topping by combining the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, and salt.

Step 6

Drizzle the melted butter and vanilla extract into the dry topping mixture, and stir until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the tomato mixture in the baking dish, ensuring the entire surface is covered.

Step 8

Bake the crisp in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the tomatoes are bubbling.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
