Calories: 308kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups sweetened applesauce
- 2 tsp cinnamon divided
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch
- ¾ cup light brown sugar divided
- 3 cups peeled and sliced Granny Smith apples
- ¾ cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp granulated white sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter chilled
Instructions
- Preheat the oven. Set the oven to 375°F so it’s ready once your crisp is assembled.
- Make the filling. Whisk together applesauce, cornstarch, cinnamon, and brown sugar until completely smooth and the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
- Add sliced apples. Stir the apples into the applesauce mixture to evenly coat every slice.
- Spread into the baking dish. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13 pan and smooth the top.
- Make the crumble topping. Combine oats, flour, cinnamon, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a bowl. Add cold, cubed butter and work it in with your fingers until the mixture looks evenly moistened and crumbly.
- Top and bake. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the filling. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the edges are bubbling.
- Rest before serving. Let the crisp cool for about 20 minutes to allow the filling to thicken. Serve warm with whipped cream or a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.
