How to Make Apple And Cheddar Cheese Dessert Lasagna

  1. Cook 9 lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside to cool.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar melts and apples are softened and juicy (about 8-10 minutes).
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Stir into the apple mixture and cook until slightly thickened (about 1 minute). Remove from heat.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  7. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  9. Spread a thin layer of the apple mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  10. Layer with 3 lasagna noodles.
  11. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese evenly over the noodles.
  12. Repeat layers (apples, noodles, cheese) two more times.
  13. Top with the remaining lasagna noodles.
  14. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the top.
  15. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
  16. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Fabulous served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
