Ingredients

FILLING

  • 10 cups peeled sliced Granny Smith apples (about 5 medium apples)
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 6 tablespoons packed brown sugar (¼ cup, plus 2 tablespoons)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 heaping teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

TOPPING

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup chopped pecans optional
  • ½ cup salted butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Grease a 9x13" pan.
  • To make the filling, place the sliced apples in the prepared 9x13" pan. Mix together the remaining filling ingredients: sugar, brown sugar, flour, and pumpkin pie spice. Sprinkle over the apples, then toss to evenly coat the apples. Set aside.
  • To make the topping, toss together oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and pecans, if using (that's everything except for the butter) until well-mixed. Drizzle the butter over the mixture and stir to combine. Evenly distribute the topping over the apple mixture.
  • Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes. When done baking, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 3-5 days for best results. 

If you don't have any pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by mixing together

  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 3/4 teaspoons ground cloves
  • Combine and store in an airtight container and use as needed.
