Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 4 apples, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
Crumble Topping
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the crumble evenly.
- Prepare Apples: Toss the peeled and sliced apples with the caramel sauce in a large bowl until they’re evenly coated, then transfer them into a baking dish to form the base layer.
- Make Crumble Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Assemble: Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the caramel-coated apples in the baking dish, making sure to cover them well for a crunchy topping.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to complement the sweet, spiced flavors.
Notes
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
- Use tart apples like Granny Smith for balanced sweetness and texture.
- You can prepare the crumble topping in advance and keep it chilled until ready to bake.
- Adjust cinnamon to your taste preference or add a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
