Ingredients

FOR THE FILLING:

  • 6 baking apples (you will need about 5 pounds)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

FOR THE TOPPING:

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375° F. Butter a 9 x 13 baking dish.
  • Peel and core  apples, and cut into thin wedges. Place in large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, add melted butter and flour and stir to combine.
  • Add lemon juice, milk and vanilla to the flour mixture; stir to combine; stir in cinnamon, brown sugar and salt. Pour mixture over the apples and fold in until apples are coated. Transfer apples to baking dish.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, add the flour, brown sugar, oatmeal, salt, baking powder and cinnamon. Pulse a few times to combine.

  •  Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
  • Place  dish on a baking sheet on the center rack of  375° oven for 1 hour.
