Equipment

  • 1 9 inch pie plate or 9 x 9 baking dish
  • 1 apple peeler
  • 1 knife

Ingredients
  

Apple Crisp Crumble Topping

  • cup (150 g) all purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 10 - 12 tablespoons (141 - 170 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed

Apple Crisp Filling

  • 6 cups apples, peeled, cored and sliced about 6 - 8 medium apples
  • 2 tablespoons (25 g) light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (25 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) lemon juice, water or apple cider

Instructions
 

  • Lightly grease a 9-inch deep dish pie plate, 9 -inch skillet or 9 x 9 baking dish. An 8 x 8 dish can also be used, but a slightly larger baking dish is preferred. Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C). 
  • In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, ground cinnamon and salt together until well combined. Using a pastry cutter, your hands or two forks, cut the cold cubed butter into the dry crumble topping until the crumble topping resembles wet sand with some larger crumbs. There should be no visible pieces of butter.
    Transfer the crumble to the fridge until it’s time to top the apple filling. 
    1¼ cup (150 g) all purpose flour, 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon , ¼ teaspoon salt , 10 - 12 tablespoons (141 - 170 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • Peel, core and slice the apples into ¼- inch thick slices or ½ -inch cubes. In another large bowl toss the diced or sliced apples with the light brown sugar, sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon. Make sure all the fruit is well coated. 
    Transfer the cinnamon spiced apple mixture to the prepared baking dish.  Top the crisp with the brown sugar crumble.
    6 cups apples, peeled, cored and sliced , 2 tablespoons (25 g) light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons (25 g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon , ¼ cup (60 ml) lemon juice, water or apple cider
  • Bake the apple crisp without oats for 40 - 50 minutes or until the top is a beautiful golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling around the edges of the baking dish.
  • Cool the apple dessert for about 20 minutes. The filling needs time to cool and thicken. After the crumble has cooled, scoop into a bowl, top with ice cream or whipped cream and enjoy.

Notes

Store: Transfer the apple crumble without oats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 - 4 days.
