How to Make Apple Pecan Crumble

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly butter a 10-inch baking dish or pie plate.
  3. Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups). In a medium bowl, combine the apples with 2 tablespoons lemon juice and the zest of 1 lemon.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and ¼ cup all-purpose flour. Add to the apples and gently toss to coat.
  5. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  6. For the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup chopped pecans, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  7. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apples.
  9. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  10. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling and tender.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving warm with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
