=== Sweet Scents & Delightful Crumbs: A Heavenly Apple Crumble Recipe!
Ingredients:
- 4 medium-sized apples (preferably Granny Smith)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small cubes
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin, even pieces. Place them in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice, cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well-coated. Transfer the apples to the prepared baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt. Add the chilled cubes of butter and, using your fingertips, rub the mixture together until it resembles coarse crumbs. It’s okay if there are some larger clumps; they will add extra crunch to your crumble.
- Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the apples, making sure to cover them completely. Press the topping down gently with the back of a spoon.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
- Once baked, remove the apple crumble from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
With this simple yet sensational apple crumble recipe, you are now equipped to create a dessert that will dazzle your friends and family.
