A comforting and easy apple crumble recipe, perfect for a weeknight treat or holiday gathering. This classic dessert features tender baked apples topped with a buttery, crisp crumble.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp, Gala, or Fuji), peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour the apple mixture into an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour and brown sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. If using oats, stir them in now.
  4. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
  5. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbly.
  6. Let the crumble cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • To reheat, place in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 10-15 minutes.
  • This recipe can be made ahead and baked just before serving.
