Ingredients

  • 4 medium apples
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¾ cup old-fashioned oats
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Peel and core the 4 apples, then slice them into 1/4-inch thick pieces.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Transfer the apple mixture to a 9-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, combine the 3/4 cup oats, 1/2 cup flour, and 1/2 cup brown sugar. Cut in the 1/2 cup butter with a fork or your fingers until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling around the edges.

  6. 6

    Let the crisp cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
