How to Make Bek S Baked Apple Crisp

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Peel, core, and slice 4 medium apples (about 2 lbs total).
3. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced apples with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
4. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Divide the apple mixture evenly among four (4-inch) ramekins or a larger baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches).
6. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples.
7. Bake for 35-40 minutes for individual crisps, or 45-55 minutes for a larger crisp, until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
8. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional).
