Apple Crumble

This classic Apple Crumble recipe is the epitome of comfort food. Sliced apples are tossed in a cinnamon-infused sugar mixture and topped with a buttery oat crumble. When baked to golden perfection, the apples become tender and bubbling, while the crumble topping adds a delightful crunch. This dessert is best served warm, often with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors. It’s an easy and satisfying dessert that captures the essence of home-baked goodness.

Method:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, lemon juice, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss everything together until the apples are well coated. Transfer this mixture into a greased 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized ovenproof dish.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping. Combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
Add the cold, diced butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This may take a few minutes.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apple filling in the baking dish.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown, and the apple filling is bubbling up around the edges.
Once done, remove the apple crumble from the oven and let it cool slightly.
