Eric’s Go-To Holiday Dish!
In a bowl, peel, core and chop (about 1 inch pieces) Apples, tossing in Lemon Juice as you go.
Add remaining ingredients into bowl and mix thoroughly.
In a separate bowl (or food processor), combine Flour, Sugar, Butter*, Cinnamon and Salt. Mix with a masher or hands (or pulse in processor) until mixture is a sandy texture.**
*Make sure butter is cold before mixing. I dice the butter straight from the refrigerator, then let chill again for 5-10 minutes.
**Humidity can effect the mixture’s consistency. If the mixture is becoming doughy add equal parts flour and granulated sugar one tbsp at a time.
In a glass or ceramic baking dish (about 9 inches), dump the apple mixture in. Gently shake until mixture settles evenly.
Carefully pour sandy crumble on top a little a time, gently shaking dish a little each time so the mixture settles into crakes. DO NOT MIX.
When all crumble is on top of apple mixture, press down to create a firm and flat top.
Note: It’s ok if some apples poke through. Apples vary in size, so if you don’t believe you have enough crumble to cover apples remove some apple from dish.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes covered, 20 minutes uncovered (or until golden brown). Be sure to rotate dish in oven about halfway, or when uncovering.
