Ingredients
Apple Filling
- 1-2 Granny Smith Apples diced into half inch pieces
- 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Flour
- 1/2 Tbsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Cloves
- pinch Ginger
- pinch Nutmeg
Streusel Topping
- 3 Tbsp Flour
- 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Quick Oats
- 1/2 Tbsp Cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp Butter melted
- 1 Tbsp Bourbon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Mix all the filling ingredients except the apples in a medium bowl until well-combined. Add the apple chunks, and toss until coated.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients for the topping (flour, sugar, oats, cinnamon). In a separate dish, mix the bourbon into the melted butter. Combine the wet and dry, and mix until combined.
- Split the apples between two ramekins, and top evenly with the streusel. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the apples are tender and bubbling, and the topping is browned and dry.
Notes
- If you're not a huge fan of cloves, you can drop that down to 1/8 tsp, or leave out completely.
- If you leave out the bourbon, your streusel may be a little drier. You can add a splash of vanilla extract. Or leave out the last Tbsp of flour, and then add slowly after mixing to achieve your desired texture.
