Simple and never a bite left.
Ingredients
For the Apple Filling:
- ½ teaspoon cornstarch
- 4 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1½ pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into ½-inch cubes
- 1½ pounds Golden Delicious Apples, peeled, cored and cut into ½-inch cubes
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- Pinch salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Almond Crisp Topping:
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup slivered almonds, crumbled with your fingers
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place oven rack in bottom third of oven.
- Make the Apple Filling: Stir the cornstarch and lemon juice together in a large bowl until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add the apples, sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg and toss to combine. Pour mixture into an 8-inch-square (or other 2-quart) baking dish.
- Make the Almond Crisp Topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, almond pieces, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Use a pastry blender (or your fingertips) to quickly incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture is the consistency of coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apple filling.
- Bake for 50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown, the juices are bubbling and the apples are tender.
