This is my take on a classic recipe: it’s broken up to be easy to serve individually! The recipe is already super easy, so it’s a win-win.
Also, you really can’t mess this up and you can change things up to make it your own (it’d be delicious with nuts or with pears or sweet potatoes).
- for the filling
- 2 cups peeled and diced apples about 3 small apples
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- for the topping
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch of salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter diced and cold
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter four individual ramekins and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the apples, 1 tbsp brown sugar, and 1 tsp ground cinnamon. Toss to make sure the apples are coated.
In another medium bowl, combine the 1/2 cup brown sugar, oats, flour 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, salt, and butter. Using your hands or a pastry cutter, crumble everything together until the butter is the size of peas.
Divide the apple mixture into the ramekins and add a generous amount of the butter mixture over the top of the apples.
Place the ramekins on a cookie sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream (optional).
