Servings: 4
Preparation duration: -1 minutes
Cooking duration: -1 minutes
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
6 large Granny Smith or Winsap apples (or another tart, firm apple), peeled, cored
1/2 pound + 3 tbsp. cold butter, cut into small cubes
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon Cinnamon,
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about half a lemon)
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup oatmeal
cup Walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup water
Equipment:
baking pan
bowl
oven
pastry cutter
Cooking instruction summary:
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
- Use the 1 tsp. butter to grease the sides and bottom of an oven-proof baking dish.*
- In a large, deep bowl, combine the apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and walnuts.
- Toss to insure all apples are well coated with the mixture.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- In another deep bowl, mix the other sugars, flour, oatmeal, salt and cinnamon until it is well blended.
- Add the 1/2 lb. of cold butter, a little at a time, and use a pastry cutter or large fork to mash into a rough topping.
- The butter should be very cold so it does not melt during this mashing process; it should remain in small beads or chunks, about the size of peas.
- When all this butter has been incorporated, add the water and mix again, to further create a crumb-like topping (much like that found on a crumb-topped pie or coffee cake).
- Layer this crumbly mixture on top of the apple-walnut filling. Make sure the entire dish is covered in an even layer of sugary goodness.
- Use the remaining 3 tbsp. of cold, cubed butter to dot the top of the dish. This will melt and add moisture to the very top during baking.
- Bake for 45 minute to 1 hour, until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is mostly golden brown.
- Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with ice cream or fresh whipped cream.
