-
1 tbsp lemon juice
-
1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
-
1/2 tsp salt

In a separate bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Cut in cold butter using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Step 3 – Assemble:
Spread the apple mixture evenly in your baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping generously over the apples.
Step 4 – Bake:
Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly.
