Ingredients

• 175 grams Unsalted butter
• 150 grams Granulated sugar
• 150 grams All-purpose flour
• 75 grams Rolled oats
• 1 pinch Salt
• 5 medium Apples (firm and tart, such as Granny Smith or Jonagold)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground cardamom
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 0 optional Heavy cream or whipped cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

Add the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, and a pinch of salt to the butter-sugar mixture. Stir until a moist dough forms. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Add the ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and brown sugar to the apples. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.

Step 6

Lightly grease a 24 cm (9.5-inch) pie dish or baking pan. Spread half of the dough evenly along the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan, pressing gently with your fingers to form a base.

Step 7

Evenly distribute the seasoned apple slices over the dough base, ensuring the apples create a slightly heaped center.

Step 8

Crumble the remaining dough over the apples, covering most of the fruit but allowing some to peek through for a rustic appearance.

Step 9

Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apple mixture is bubbling.

Step 10

Allow the pie to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature with heavy cream or whipped cream, if desired.
