Ingredients

• 6 medium Apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 0.5 cup Light brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour (for topping)
• 0.5 cup Light brown sugar (for topping)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0 Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and set it aside.

Step 2

Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin, even slices. Place the slices in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt to the apples. Toss until the apples are evenly coated. Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the oats, 1/2 cup of flour, and 1/2 cup of light brown sugar. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the melted butter into the oat mixture and mix until crumbly. Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the topping mixture and fold it in gently.

Step 6

Sprinkle the oat and cheese topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 8

Let the apple crisp cool slightly before serving. For an indulgent experience, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
