Ingredients
For the apples
- 7 apples, cored and chopped but not peeled
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
For the crumble
- 1 stick butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups quick oats
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup honey

Preparation Instructions
- Prepare to bake—Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Prep the apples—Add apples to a medium ceramic non-stick skillet along with 1/4 cup honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Toss to coat apples evenly.
- Mix the crumble—In a medium bowl, add butter, oats, flour, brown sugar, honey, nuts, and a generous pinch of salt. Stir or mix with hands until everything’s incorporated.
- Assemble and bake—Sprinkle crumble evenly over apples. Bake in preheated oven until juices are bubbling and crumble is beautifully browned, about 50 minutes.
Tips
Apple Picking
For this crumble, choose firm-fleshed apples that won’t fall apart when baked. Try Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn—or combo of all three. Skip a time-consuming step and leave the peels on—they’re packed with nutrients.
