Ingredients

Topping:

  • cup all purpose flour
  • cup old fashioned oats
  • cup light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted

Apples:

  • 6 cups peeled and thinly sliced apples see note
  • 3 tablespoons apple juice (preferred) or orang juice
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch deep dish pie plate or 9x9 square baking dish. Set aside.
  • Topping: combine flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Place in the refrigerator while you proceed with the filling.
  • Filling: In a large bowl combine apples, juice, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir gently until completely combined. Dump the mixture (and any accumulated juices) into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer. Crumble the topping over the fruit, occasionally pressing some of it together to form clumps.
  • Spray a piece of foil with nonstick spray and loosely cover the baking dish. Bake 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, until the topping is golden brown, the apples are tender, and the juices are bubbling around the edges. Allow to cool slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Apples: You will need about 4-6 apples. Apples should be sliced ¼ inch thick or smaller. I recommend using Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, Fuji, or a combination of those.
Serving and storage: Serve warm topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. You can also add a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Have leftovers? Place them in the refrigerator. You can eat the leftovers cold, straight from the fridge or you can reheat servings in the microwave.
