INGREDIENTS
•
12 tbsp (185g) salted butter, at room temperature (see note below)
•
2 cups (250g) all purpose flour
•
2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar
•
1/2 -1 tsp ground cinnamon, optional (I usually don’t add cinnamon for this recipe)
•
Pat of salted butter, for coating the pan
•
2 lbs (907g) or about 5 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1 1/2- inch pieces
•
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
•
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
•
If not using salted butter, add 1/4 tsp fine sea salt to the crumble topping.
•
The crumble topping yields about 4 cups (lightly packed), which is enough to fit (2x) 9×13-inch baking pans. For this recipe, you’ll only need about 2 cups. Freeze the remaining 2 cups for another crumble. Directions below.

For individual portions, you can fill up to (12x) small ramekins.
