How to Make Apple Crunch

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups sliced).
  3. In a large bowl, toss the apples with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Pour the apple mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
