For the topping
1/2 cup (2.25 oz) unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (1.65 oz) rolled oats
2/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup (3.5 oz) sugar
5 tablespoons (2.5 oz) unsalted butter, melted
1/8 teaspoon salt
For the filling
Grated zest and juice of 1 orange
1/2 cup (2.5 oz) coarsely chopped dried apricots
1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar (1.75-3.5 oz), depending on the tartness of the apples
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
7 medium apples
Vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt, optional

1
Position rack in lower third of the oven; preheat to 350u00b0F. Liberally butter a 2-quart, 2-inch deep baking dish.
2
To make the topping: Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
3
To make the filling: Combine orange zest, juice, and chopped apricots in small bowl. Let apricots soften while you prepare apples. Mix sugar and cinnamon in large bowl. Quarter and core the apples. Cut each quarter into 3 or 4 chunks. Toss the apples with the cinnamon sugar. Stir in the apricots and juice.
4
Scrape the mixture into the buttered baking dish and spread it evenly. Distribute the crumbly topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 1 1/4-1 1/2 hours, until the crisp is browned on top and the juices are bubbling and thickened. (If your apples were a little dry, you may not see any juices toward the end of the baking time; if so, the browned topping is your cue to doneness.) Serve warm or cold. Top with ice cream or frozen yogurt, if desired.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
