Apple Crumble with Organic Oats and Spiced Streusel Topping

A warm apple crumble, topped with a buttery oat topping and a hint of cinnamon.

Ingredients

• 4 medium Apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 1/4 cup Cane Sugar
• 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp Nutmeg, ground
• 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1/2 cup Thick Rolled Oats
• 1/4 cup Cane Sugar
• 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) Cold Butter, cubed
• 1/8 tsp Pinch of Salt

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine sliced apples, 1/4 cup Cane Sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss to coat evenly.
3. Transfer the apple mixture to a baking dish.
4. In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, Thick Rolled Oats, Cane Sugar, and salt.
5. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Do not overmix to keep the topping tender.
6. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apple mixture.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the apples—they should be easily pierced.
8. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
