Equipment

- Mixing bowls
- Sharp knife
- Peeler
- Cutting board
- Wooden spoon
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Oven
Ingredients
For the apple filling:
- 6 medium apples Granny Smith or Braeburn, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the crumble topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold, cubed
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish lightly with butter.
Step 2: Prepare the apples
- In a bowl, combine the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss well until evenly coated.
Step 3: Assemble the base
- Spread the apple mixture evenly into the baking dish. Make sure the apples are distributed evenly for consistent cooking.
Step 4: Make the crumble topping
- In another bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and rub them into the mixture using your fingertips until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 5: Add the topping
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples. Don’t press it down—keep it loose for a crisp texture.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling underneath.
Step 7: Cool slightly and serve
- Let the crumble rest for 10 minutes before serving. This helps the filling set slightly.
