How to Make Apple Bake Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 7x11 inch baking pan with butter.
  3. In a large bowl, gently toss 6 cups peeled and sliced apples with 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  4. Set aside.
  5. In a food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  6. Add 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes, and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup milk.
  8. With the food processor running, slowly pour in the wet ingredients until just combined.
  9. Spoon half of the crumble mixture into the prepared baking pan.
  10. Top with the apple mixture.
  11. Spoon the remaining crumble mixture over the apples.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
