Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup dark brown sugar
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled cut into pieces
• 1 cup rolled or steel cut oats
• 5 pounds Granny Smith, Maccoun or other apples that have good firmness and flavor, preferably a combination
• Zest and juice of 1 lemon
• Zest and juice of 1 orange
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Vanilla ice cream or Sweetened Whipped Cream (see Note) to serve

Directions

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a shallow 4-quart baking pan. 2. Place the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a food processor and process to blend. Add half of the butter and pulse to incorporate a bit, then add the rest of the butter and pulse the mixture until it forms a nubby, pebbly texture, but not a paste. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the oats with a spoon, so they don’t get minced up by the food processor. Hold the topping in the fridge while you prepare the apples if it’s warm in the kitchen. 3. Peel and slice the apples about 1/2-inch thick. Toss them in a large bowl with the zest and juice of the lemon and orange, then sprinkle over the sugar and cinnamon and toss so that the apples are evenly coated with the mixture. Transfer the apples to the prepared pan and evenly distribute the topping over the apples. 4. Bake for about 1 hour until the apples are tender (slide a knife into the middle of the pan) and the top is browned. You can give it a minute or two under the broiler if you want to get the top a bit more browned, but watch it carefully. Cool on a wire rack until warm, and serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
