Ingredients
- 8 large apples
- 1 & 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 & 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg
- 3/4 cup salted butter softened
- vanilla ice cream pretty much not optional :)
- Homemade Caramel Sauce click for recipe
Instructions
- Peel and core the apples. Use a sharp knife or mandolin to slice the apples into very thin, uniform pieces.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
- Add the sliced apples to the pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 and 1/2 cups brown sugar, 1 cup flour, 1 cup oats, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg.
- Use a fork or pastry cutter to cut in 3/4 cup softened butter. (That's 1 stick plus another half stick.)
- Sprinkle the streusel over the apples.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes at 375. It is done when a knife inserted in the center slides in easily (the apples should be fork-tender).
- Let stand for a few minutes before serving hot or room temperature.
- Serve with ice cream and this amazing caramel sauce.
- Serves 12-16.

Notes
- *A variety of apples is best. I used Granny Smith, Fuji, and Pink Lady.
- **I've successfully replaced the flour with a gluten-free flour blend, if you're feeding someone who's gluten free.
- I've never tried it, but Amelia's mom notes that you can also use 8 large fresh peaches, or canned peaches that have been drained well. Or try my favorite Peach Cobbler recipe!
- Recipe from my friend Amelia and her mom Diane. Thanks ladies!
