Instructions:
Preheat oven to 359°. Prepare a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine sliced apples with SUGAR, CINNAMON, and VANILLA.
Mix until apples are evenly coated. Pour into prepared baking dish.
In a separate medium sized bowl, combine FLOUR, OATS, BROWN SUGAR, SALT and CINNAMON. Pour in melted butter an stir until well coated and crumbly.
Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over the top of the apples.
Bake in preheated oven 45 - 60 minutes until apples are soft and topping is golden.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. (Cover with foil and place in 175° oven to keep warm)
Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Notes:
Slice apples evenly! May use apple slicer and then cut in half again lengthwise, to roughly 1/2 inch wide slices.
To prevent over-browning if topping is browning too quickly and apples need more cooking time, place aluminum loosely over top and continue baking.
