How to Make Apple Cranberry Crunch
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.
- Peel and slice 4 medium apples (about 4 cups). Arrange them evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the apples generously with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Spread 1 cup of whole berry cranberry sauce evenly over the apples.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 ½ cups rolled oats, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup chopped pecans, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cranberry layer.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. Let cool slightly before serving.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
