A delightful twist on the classic apple crisp, featuring a hint of cinnamon and a nutty topping for added flavor and texture.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating the oven ensures even cooking from the start.
Peel and core the apples, then slice them into thin wedges.
Use a mix of apple varieties for a more complex flavor.
In a mixing bowl, toss the apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice until evenly coated.
Coating the apples evenly ensures consistent flavor throughout.
Transfer the apple mixture to a lightly greased casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In another mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and chopped walnuts.
Mixing the dry ingredients first ensures even distribution.
Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Using cold butter helps create a crumbly texture for the topping.
Sprinkle the topping mixture evenly over the apples in the casserole dish.
Ensure the topping covers the apples completely for a uniform crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Check the dish halfway through to ensure even baking.
Let the crumble cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Allowing the crumble to cool helps the flavors meld together.
