How to Make Apple Oatmeal Crisp

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. **Make the Crisp Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups rolled oats, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
3. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Set aside.
5. **Prepare the Apples:** Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups).
6. In a shallow 2-quart ovenproof dish, toss the apples with 2 tablespoons lemon juice, ¼ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste depending on apple tartness), and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
7. Spread the apple mixture evenly in the dish.
8. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples.
9. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. If the topping browns too quickly, cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil and reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
10. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
