  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  6. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the apples.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
