Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust or homemade
  • 6 cups apples peeled, cored, and sliced thin (about 5–6 medium apples)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce store-bought or homemade
  • Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream optional for serving

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and place the rack in the center.
  2. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the crust and crimp the edges. Set aside.
  3. Toss the sliced apples with lemon juice in a large bowl.
  4. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  5. Stir until every apple slice is coated.
  6. Pour the apple mixture into the crust and spread evenly.
  7. In another bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  8. Add melted butter and stir until the mixture forms clumps.
  9. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples and press lightly so it sticks.
  10. Bake for 45–50 minutes until the topping is golden and the filling bubbles at the edges.
  11. If the topping browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
  12. Remove from the oven and cool at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.
  13. Drizzle caramel sauce over the top before serving.
  14. Slice and serve plain, or with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  15. Store leftovers loosely covered at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
  16. Reheat slices in the oven for best texture.
