Ingredients
-
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus 2 Tbsp
-
1/2 cup old fashioned oats (not instant)
-
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
-
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
-
1 pinch salt
-
3 tablespoons light stick butter, diced
-
1 teaspoon water
-
1/4 cup granulated sugar
-
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
-
1 pinch ground cloves
-
3 lbs golden delicious apples or 3 lbs jonathan apples, peeled and thinly sliced
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F Spray a shallow 1-1/2 quart baking dish with nonstick spray.
- To make the topping, combine the 1/2 cup flour, the oats, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. With a pastry blender or 2 knives used scissor-fashion, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and firmly press mixture to form clumps.
- To make the filling, mix the granulated sugar, the 2 tablespoons flour, the nutmeg, and cloves in a large bowl. Add the apples and vanilla; mix well. Transfer to the baking dish. Sprinkle the topping over the filling. Bake until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden, 55 - 60 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
