This easy-to-make dish is perfect for a cozy evening at home or a delightful end to a festive meal.

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel, core, and slice the apples.
- Place the sliced apples into an 8-inch (20cm) baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
- Cut the softened butter into small cubes.
- Add the butter cubes and chopped almonds to the dry mixture.
- Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Ensure that the butter is evenly distributed.
- Evenly spread the crumble mixture over the apples in the baking dish, covering them completely.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) before you start preparing the crumble.
- Choose a mix of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp, for a more complex flavor.
- Cut the apples into even slices to ensure they cook uniformly.
- For an added layer of flavor, you can toast the almonds and oats in a dry pan before mixing them into the crumble topping.
- Keep an eye on the crumble as it bakes; if the topping browns too quickly, you can cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with almond flour or a gluten-free flour blend.
- Allow the apple crumble to cool for a few minutes before serving to let the juices thicken.
This mouthwatering apple crumble is sure to become a favorite in your household. Whether you're serving it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoying it on its own, this dessert offers a perfect blend of flavors and textures that will leave everyone asking for seconds.
