Description
A warm, cozy dessert made with tender cinnamon apples and a golden oat crumble infused with tangy sourdough discard for extra flavor and texture.
Ingredients
For the filling:
6–8 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
½ cup sugar (white or brown)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon cornstarch or all-purpose flour
For the topping:
1 cup sourdough discard
1 cup old-fashioned oats
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cold butter, cubed
½ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Toss the apples with sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and cornstarch until well coated. Spread evenly in a greased baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in sourdough discard until clumps form.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples.
Bake for 40–45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Mixing different apple varieties will give a balanced sweet-tart flavor.
For a vegan version, use coconut oil or plant-based butter.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
