5 Medium Apples, Peeled, Cored And Thinly Sliced (See Note)
1/4 cups Pure Maple Syrup
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
FOR THE TOPPING:
1-1/3 cup All-purpose Flour
1-1/3 cup Packed Brown Sugar
2/3 cups Chopped Pecans
1/3 cups Old Fashioned Oats
1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1/2 cups Cold Unsalted Butter, Cubed

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Generously grease an 8x8-inch baking pan with nonstick baking spray or butter.
2
To make the filling, place apples, maple syrup, cinnamon and vanilla in a large bowl and stir to combine.
3
For the topping, place flour, brown sugar, pecans, oats and cinnamon in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Work butter into the mixture with a pastry blender or with your fingertips until mixture resembles a coarse meal.
4
Take 1 cup of the topping and toss it in with the apple mixture. Spread the rest of the topping evenly over the apples (you might have some left over).
5
Bake the crisp on a baking sheet for 50-60 minutes, or until topping is crunchy and golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Remove from oven and cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with some vanilla ice cream.

Notes:

1. In this recipe I used honeycrisp apples, but other great baking apples include empire, gala, braeburn, granny smith, pink lady, cortland, or fuji.

2. This recipe makes a lot of crumble topping. If you'd like a regular amount of topping, the recipe can easily be halved. Just make the topping and mix in 1/2 cup of it with the apples instead of a full cup.

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.
