Ingredients

Ingredients List

  • 6 apples - peeled, cored, and sliced

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided

  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • ¾ cup old-fashioned oats

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup cold butter


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Toss apples with white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium bowl to coat; pour into a 9-inch square baking dish.

  3. Mix brown sugar, oats, flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a separate bowl. Cut in cold butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; spread over apples and pat down gently until even.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and sides are bubbling, about 40 minutes.

Tips

Use the best-quality cinnamon you can find and get it from a spice merchant or even a store where you can buy it in bulk; it does make a difference.
