A warm and comforting dessert featuring caramelized apples and a buttery oat topping, baked to perfection in a cast iron skillet for a rustic charm.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith recommended)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for gluten-free)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (or plant-based butter for vegan)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin, even slices. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and lemon juice to the apples. Toss until evenly coated.
  4. In another mixing bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Pour melted butter over the mixture and stir until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Lightly grease your cast iron skillet with butter or cooking spray. Spread the seasoned apple slices evenly across the bottom of the skillet.
  6. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the apples, ensuring they are completely covered.
  7. Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling around the edges.
  8. Let the apple crisp cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

[‘Choose firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best results.’, ‘Do not overmix the topping to maintain a crumbly texture.’, ‘If apples release too much liquid, toss them with a tablespoon of cornstarch before baking.’, ‘Reheat leftovers in the oven to restore the crisp topping.’]
