Classic Apple Crisp with Cinnamon Crumble Topping

Ingredients

For the Filling:
- 4 cups apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

For the Crumble Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to preheat while you prepare the ingredients.

2. Prepare the Apple Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the apple slices, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon.
- Toss until apples are evenly coated, then transfer the mixture into an 8x8-inch baking dish, spreading out in an even layer.

3. Make the Crumble Topping:
- In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt.
- Add the cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Assemble and Bake:
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.

5. Cool and Serve:
- Remove the apple crisp from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
