Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Prepare the Apples: In a mixing bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, ¼ cup of the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spread the apple mixture evenly into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish.
Make the Crumble: In another bowl, combine the flour and remaining ½ cup sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chopped nuts if using. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples.
Bake: Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbly.
Serve: Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Notes

You can substitute part of the flour with oats for a crispier topping.
For a lower-sugar version, reduce the sugar slightly or use a sugar substitute.
