Ingredients

• 6 units (medium) Granny Smith apples
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 150 grams All-purpose flour
• 100 grams (cold, cubed) Unsalted butter
• 75 grams Brown sugar
• 50 grams Rolled oats

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish or pie dish.

Step 2

Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss to coat thoroughly and evenly.

Step 4

Transfer the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 5

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and brown sugar for the crumble topping.

Step 6

Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour and sugar mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Step 7

Stir the rolled oats into the crumble mixture, ensuring everything is evenly combined.

Step 8

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish, covering the fruit completely.

Step 9

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling underneath.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with custard, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream for the perfect finishing touch.
