- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- Allspice
- Cinnamon
- Nutmeg
- ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter
How to Make Autumn Moon Cafe S Apple Crisp
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel, core, and slice 5 Granny Smith apples (about 6 cups sliced).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and 2 teaspoons lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
- Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a separate large bowl, prepare the crumble topping: Combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup rolled oats, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup cold unsalted butter (1 stick), 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the apple mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp. If the topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
