There is nothing quite like the smell of apples and cinnamon baking in the oven. This recipe is a favorite in my home because it is so simple to put together when you want a sweet treat without all the fuss of making a pie crust.

I always try to pick a mix of tart and sweet apples for the best flavor. If you want to make this even better, add a big scoop of vanilla ice cream right on top while the fruit is still hot and bubbly.

🧺 Ingredients

6 cups tart apples, peeled and sliced
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon salt

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a 9 by 9 inch baking dish.
2
In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with the granulated sugar and cinnamon until they are evenly coated.
3
Spread the apple mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
4
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt.
5
Cut the softened butter into the dry mixture using a fork or your fingers until it looks like coarse crumbs.
6
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples.
7
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can warm individual portions in the microwave for a few seconds before serving. It also tastes great served cold for breakfast with a spoonful of yogurt.
