Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F, about 10 minutes, and butter a 9 inch baking dish.

  2. Step 2

    Peel, core and slice 6 medium apples, then toss them in the dish with 2 tbsp of the brown sugar and 0.5 tsp of the cinnamon.

  3. Step 3

    Melt 0.5 cup butter in the microwave, about 45 seconds, until fully liquid with no lumps.

  4. Step 4

    Stir 0.5 cup flour, 0.5 cup oats, the remaining 6 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon and 0.25 tsp salt into the butter until it clumps like wet sand.

  5. Step 5

    Squeeze the crumble into clumps with your fingers and scatter it evenly over the apples.

  6. Step 6

    Bake 35-40 minutes until the topping is deep golden and the juices bubble thickly at the edges.

  7. Step 7

    Rest 10 minutes until the bubbling settles, then serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar if you have it.
