Ingredients

Cinnamon Sugar Apples
  • 2 lbs. (about 6) Apples *
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 Tablespoon flour
Brown Sugar Pecan Crumble Topping:
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup pecans (chopped)
  • 3/4 cup melted salted butter
  • vanilla ice cream

Instructions

Cinnamon Sugar Apples:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Start by peeling the apples. Slice the apples or cut them into bite-size pieces or chunks. Place in a bowl and toss with sugar, cinnamon, and a touch of flour. Place in a 8 or 9-inch baking dish.
Brown Sugar Pecan Crumble:
  1. In a bowl, add brown sugar, flour, and pecans and toss. Add in melted butter and mix together until all of the ingredients come together.
  2. Top the cinnamon sugar apples with the pecan crumble topping. 
  3. Spray a piece of foil with non-stick cooking spray. Place the side down (that has been sprayed with cooking spray) on top of the crumble. This will help to keep the crumble from becoming too brown.
  4. Bake for 45-55 minutes. Remove the foil halfway through the baking time. Watch for the apples to start to bubble and thicken.
  5. Remove from the oven and let sit for about 15 minutes to allow it to firm up and cool down.Serve with vanilla ice cream. 

Notes

  • Fresh Apples -- I suggest a sweet and firm apple. A Granny Smith apple is known for its tartness and will work beautifully in this recipe. Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp apples will work well too. Peel the apples and cut them into slices or chunks, depending on preference.
