Tart Granny Smith apples and sweet Honeycrisp apples bake into a jammy filling under a golden oat crumble, with buttery brown sugar clusters, glossy lemon juice, and fragrant vanilla tucked into every bite. Allspice Infused Olive Oil brings clove-like warmth, cinnamon-like sweetness, and a gentle peppery finish that melts into the apples as they bubble, giving this crumble a deeper spice character without making it feel heavy. It fits beautifully after a weeknight family dinner, on a fall harvest table, or beside coffee at a holiday gathering. This is the recipe people come back for another scoop of.

Spiced Apple Crumble Made with Allspice Blend Olive Oil
Ingredients
- 5 cups peeled and sliced apples about 5 medium apples, mixed Granny Smith and Honeycrisp
- 2 tablespoons Garden Infuzions Allspice Infused Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into small cubes
- 1 tablespoon Garden Infuzions Allspice Infused Olive Oil
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish or a similar 2-quart baking dish.
- Add the sliced apples to a large bowl, then toss with the Allspice Infused Olive Oil, lemon juice, and vanilla until the fruit is evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the apples with brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt, then toss again until the slices look glossy and lightly coated.
- Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the crumble topping.
- Add the cold butter cubes and rub them into the oat mixture with your fingertips or a pastry cutter until the topping forms small, buttery clumps.
- Drizzle in 1 tablespoon Allspice Infused Olive Oil and gently toss the crumble until a few larger clusters form.
- Scatter the topping evenly over the apples, keeping some texture and small clumps on the surface.
- Bake for 38 to 42 minutes, until the apples are bubbling around the edges and the topping is golden brown.
- Let the crumble rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving so the filling settles slightly and the topping stays crisp.
Notes

Let us know how it was!Recipe Tips
Use a mix of tart and sweet apples so the filling tastes bright instead of flat. Cut the apples into even slices so they soften at the same pace, and toss them with the Allspice Infused Olive Oil before adding the crumble so the spice character touches the whole filling.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a spoonful of Greek yogurt. For a cozy dessert board, pair it with hot coffee, spiced tea, or a simple bowl of toasted pecans.
Storage
Cover leftovers and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave, or warm the whole dish loosely covered in a 325°F oven until the filling is hot and the topping crisps back up.
Variations
Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the crumble topping for extra crunch. Swap one apple for a firm pear, or stir a handful of dried cranberries into the filling for a holiday-style twist.
