It has all the flavors of homemade apple pie, with less effort and a crumble topping that’s packed with flavor. It’s perfect for holidays, gatherings, or whenever you crave a warm slice of comfort.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- All-purpose flour – It thickens the filling and structures both the crust and crumble.
- Granulated sugar – Adds a touch of sweetness and helps with the browning of the crust.
- Salt – Balances flavors and enhances sweetness
- Vegan butter – Creates that classic flaky texture for the dough, and also binds and crisps the crumble. Be sure to keep it cold.
- Ice water – Brings the dough together without overworking it. Cold water optimizes flakiness.
- Apples – Use a mix of tart and sweet, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp.
- Brown sugar – Adds caramel-like flavor.
- Lemon juice – Prevents browning and brightens flavor.
- Cinnamon – The main spice note.
- Ginger – Adds gentle warmth.
- Nutmeg – Deepens the flavor.
- Old-fashioned oats – Adds texture and crunch.
- Maple syrup – Adds a subtle caramel flavor and extra moisture.
