Ingredients

• 5 cups thinly-sliced apples
• Lemon juice, to taste
• ⅓ cup water
• Powdered cinnamon, to taste
• ¼ pound butter
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• ¾ cup rolled oats
• ½ cup flour
• 1 tsp powdered cinnamon
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
• Additional rolled oats (optional)
• Ice cream or whipped cream, for serving

Procedure

1. Preheat a conventional (i.e. not convection) oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
2. Place the apple slices in a buttered baking pan. Sprinkle them with lemon juice for flavor and to prevent them from turning brown. Mix in the water and cinnamon to taste.
3. To make the topping, combine the butter, brown sugar, oats, flour, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Crumble the ingredients in a bowl with your fingers to create a uniform mixture.
4. Cover the apples with the topping. If desired, sprinkle some rolled oats sparingly on the surface for added texture.
5. Bake for 30–45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the apples are soft and the topping is crisped.
6. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes, tips, and variations

• Peeling the apples before slicing is traditional but not required.
