A delightful twist on the classic apple crisp, featuring a crunchy pecan topping and a hint of citrus.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even baking.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Use a mix of apple varieties for a more complex flavor.
Add the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, and the juice of one lemon to the apples. Toss to coat evenly.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the apple slices.
Transfer the seasoned apples to a baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
Ensure the apples are evenly distributed for uniform baking.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and chopped pecans.
Toast the pecans beforehand for added flavor.
Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Keep the butter cold for a better crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
Press the topping lightly to ensure it adheres to the apples.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Check the crumble halfway through and rotate the dish if needed.
Let the crumble cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delightful treat.
