Ingredients

Baked Apples

2 lbs. apples $2.08
3 Tbsp granulated sugar $0.18
1 Tbsp all-purpose flour $0.02
1 tsp ground cinnamon $0.10
¼ tsp ground ginger $0.02
⅛ tsp ground cloves $0.01
½ tsp vanilla extract $0.32

Oat Topping

¼ cup all-purpose flour $0.04
⅓ cup rolled oats $0.06
½ cup brown sugar $0.24
⅛ tsp salt $0.01
¼ tsp ground cinnamon $0.02
¼ cup butter room temperature, $0.40

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Core and slice the apples into ¼-½ inch wide slices (peel, if desired). Place the sliced apples in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves to season the apples. Sprinkle the mixture over the sliced apples and drizzle the vanilla extract over top. Stir the apples until they're evenly coated in spices and add them to a 2-quart baking dish.
Next, make the oat topping. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Cut the butter into chunks and then use your hands to work it into the oat mixture until it is crumbly and appears sort of damp.
Sprinkle the crumbly oat mixture over the seasoned apples. Transfer to the oven and bake for 45 minutes. Serve hot with ice cream or whipped cream on top!
