Description

This caramel apple crisp with crunchy oat topping features tender granny smith apples, rich caramel, and a buttery, crumbly topping—making it a perfect comfort food for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 granny smith apples, cut into 1/2" pieces
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce
  • 8 tablespoons butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a bowl, combine the diced apples and lemon juice and stir to coat the apples. Sprinkle the flour and cinnamon on the apples and toss until well coated, then place the mixture into a 9" pie plate.
  3. Drizzle about 1/2 cup of the caramel topping over the apple mixture and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the softened butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and oats. Mix until well combined and it forms approximately 1/2" crumbles. Sprinkle the oat topping over the apple mixture.
  5. Bake in your preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the top is golden.
  6. Remove from the oven and cool slightly before drizzling a little more caramel on top to garnish. Enjoy!

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding walnuts or pecans to the topping.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
