• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/4 cup Cinnamon Infused Olive Oil
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Equipment

Method

 

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish or similar baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and 3 tablespoons Cinnamon Infused Olive Oil until evenly coated.
3. Spread the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
4. In a second bowl, stir together the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and walnuts.
5. Drizzle in 1/4 cup Cinnamon Infused Olive Oil and the maple syrup, then mix until the topping forms crumbly clusters.
6. Scatter the topping evenly over the apples.
7. Bake for 38 to 42 minutes, until the fruit is bubbling at the edges and the topping is golden brown.
8. Let the crisp rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving so it scoops neatly.
9. Serve warm on its own or with your favorite topping.

Notes

Choose apples that hold their shape well, like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or a mix of sweet and tart varieties. If the topping browns quickly, loosely cover the dish with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking. For extra texture, add more chopped walnuts or replace part of them with pecans.

Recipe Tips

Use firm baking apples so the filling softens without turning mushy, and let the crisp rest for a few minutes after baking so the juices settle.

Serving Suggestions

Serve warm in bowls with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a spoonful of yogurt-style topping for a simple dessert moment.

Storage

Cover leftovers and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Rewarm individual portions in the oven or microwave until the topping is cozy again.

Variations

Try adding chopped pecans, swapping in pears for part of the apples, or using a little orange zest for a brighter finish.
