Filled with tender, caramelized apples and topped with a sweet oat topping, this rustic, easy Irish Apple Crumble is always a crowd-pleaser. Even better topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
0 Preheat oven to 375° F.
1 Grease an 8x8 baking dish (or any similarly-sized casserole dish) with nonstick cooking spray.
2 In one bowl, make the topping by combining 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine.
3 Use your hands to rub butter into dry ingredients until the mixture resembles dry sand. Store in the refrigerator.
4 In another bowl, stir together apples and lemon juice. Add 1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Stir to fully coat the apples.
5 Transfer apple layer to prepared baking dish.
6 Use your hands to crumble the topping over the apples.
7 Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until the apples are soft and bubbly and the top is golden brown. (Note: If using a dish that is smaller than 8x8 you will have a deeper layer of apples; add 5 to 10 minutes to the bake time.)
8 Let cool for 5 minutes before spooning into bowls.
9 Serve crumble on its own or top with vanilla ice cream and / or whipped cream.
