Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 3 cups peeled and diced apples (about 2-3 medium apples)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour an 8×8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Press about two-thirds of the crumble mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
  5. In another bowl, toss the diced apples with granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice until well combined.
  6. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crumble base in the pan.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture over the apple layer.
  8. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbly.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cardamom to the apple filling.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • These bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
