Ingredients
  

6 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Extra cinnamon for sprinkling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with non-stick spray or butter.

    Prepare the Apples: In a large mixing bowl, toss the sliced Granny Smith apples with lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Make sure the apples are well coated. Pour the apple mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.

      Make the Crisp Topping: In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, granulated sugar, and optional chopped nuts. Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix well until crumbly and everything is combined evenly.

        Assemble the Crisp: Sprinkle the oat topping generously over the apple filling in the baking dish. For an extra touch of flavor, lightly dust the topping with additional cinnamon.

          Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp.

            Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a delightful treat.
