A delightful twist on the classic apple crisp, this recipe combines warm spiced apples with a buttery crumble topping, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
Uniform slices ensure even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss to coat evenly.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the apple slices.
Transfer the apple mixture to a lightly greased baking dish.
Spread the apples evenly for consistent baking.
In another bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and butter. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use cold butter for a better crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples.
Ensure the topping covers the apples completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Check halfway through to ensure even browning.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of ice cream.
Letting it cool enhances the flavors and makes it easier to serve.
