Ingredients
Scale
- 6 granny smith apples, cut into 1/2" pieces
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 8 tablespoons butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the diced apples and lemon juice in a bowl, stirring well to coat the apples. Sprinkle the flour and cinnamon on top and toss the apples until evenly coated, then transfer to a 9" pie plate.
- Drizzle approximately 1/2 cup of caramel sauce over the apple mixture and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix softened butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and oats until everything is well integrated, forming about 1/2" crumbles. Spread this oat mixture over the apples.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes in the preheated oven until the topping is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, and garnish with additional caramel before serving.
Notes
Ensure the apples are firm for better texture after baking.
