Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 8 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats

Fruit and Base

Sweeteners and Sugars:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

Measurements and Spices:

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 heaping tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of kosher salt

Additional Components:

  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons / 113 grams) salted butter, melted
  • Salted butter, enough to grease the baking dish
  • Ice cream or frozen custard, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Ignite the oven to a toasty 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and lovingly coat a 9×13-inch (23×33 centimeters) glass baking vessel with a generous layer of butter.
  2. Artfully cascade apple slices across the buttered surface, ensuring an even, elegant arrangement.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, harmonize granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, aromatic ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Delicately dust this fragrant mixture over the apple landscape, then tenderly drench with 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) of water.
  4. Craft the crisp topping by blending 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour, hearty oats, rich brown sugar, leavening agents, and a whisper of salt. Introduce melted butter in a gradual stream, stirring until the mixture transforms into a cohesive, crumbly texture.
  5. Gently blanket the apple foundation with the oat mixture, ensuring complete and uniform coverage.
  6. Slide the baking dish into the preheated oven, allowing it to transform for approximately 43 minutes. Watch for a golden-brown, crisp topping that signals culinary perfection.
  7. Serve this comforting creation warm or at room temperature, optionally accompanied by a scoop of velvety ice cream or luxurious frozen custard for an ultimate sensory experience.
