- Sprinkle the apples evenly with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour.
- Cut in 1/2 cup of chilled, cubed margarine and 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1/2 cup of the crumb mixture to the apples in the baking dish and gently mix to combine.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the top of the apple mixture.
- Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and lightly browned.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
