- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (100g)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small cubes (76g)
For the Apple Filling
- 2 pounds baking apples about 6 apples, peeled, cored and sliced thin (about 1/8-inch)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (42g)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar (50g)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Caramel sauce for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F. Lightly butter an 8x8-inch glass baking dish and set aside.
- Prepare the Topping: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, oats, light brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add cubed butter and, using clean hands, combine butter with dry mixture until it comes together into small crumbles. Transfer to refrigerator to chill while preparing filling.
- Make the Filling: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and flour until slightly thick. Stir in water, lemon juice and vanilla. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and pinch of salt. Stir until ingredients are well combined.
- Place sliced apples in a large bowl and pour butter mixture over the apples. Use a rubber spatula to toss and evenly coat the apples in butter mixture. Transfer apples to prepared baking dish.
- Remove topping from the refrigerator (separate into crumbles if necessary) and sprinkle evenly over the top of the apple layer.
- Bake at 375° F for 35 minutes, or until top is golden brown and the apples juices are bubbling at the edges of the pan. Remove crisp from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce if desired.
