- 1/3 cup brown sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

 Let’s Get Crumbling!

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prep the Apples: Peel, core, and slice the apples into bite-sized chunks. Toss them in a bowl with the sugar, cinnamon, and a squeeze of lemon juice if you like a little extra zing.

3. Make the Crumble Topping: In a separate bowl, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add in the cold, cubed butter and use your fingers to rub it into the dry ingredients until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

4. Assemble: Pour the apple mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.

5. Bake: Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the apples are bubbling underneath.

6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm, preferably with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

- Gluten-Free Option: Swap the flour for almond flour or a gluten-free blend if you need it gluten-free.
