Equipment

8 or 9-inch casserole or baking dish

Ingredients

Apple Crisp Filling

8 apples medium-sized, rinsed, peeled, cored, and diced small
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tbsp butter melted
1/2 cup brown sugar packed
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Apple Crisp Topping

1 cup oats rolled or old-fashioned
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 stick melted butter

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350° and grease or spray an 8-inch or 9-inch casserole or baking dish.
Place the diced apples and the lemon juice in a large mixing bowl and toss to coat.
Add the melted butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss again to coat evenly.
Pour the apple filling into your prepared baking dish. Spread evenly and set aside.
To make the crisp topping, place the oats, flour, sugar, almonds (if using), cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Stir to combine.
Pour the melted butter over the ingredients in the bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
Spoon the topping over the apple filling and gently spread until the filling is covered evenly.
Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the crisp topping is lightly browned and the filling is bubbly and warm.
Serve warm, as is, or top with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce and enjoy!

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use a melted dairy-free/vegan butter substitute such as Earth Balance or Country Crock Plant Butter. Serve with your favorite dairy-free ice cream.
