Ingredients:

8 large apples

1 and 1/2 cups brown sugar

1 cup flour

1 cup oats

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 and 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg

3/4 cup salted butter, softened

vanilla ice cream, pretty much not optional

caramel sauce

Directions:

1. Peel and core the apples. Use a sharp knife or mandolin to slice the apples into very thin, uniform pieces.

2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.

3. Add the sliced apples to the pan.

4. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Use a fork or pastry cutter to stir in the softened butter.

5. Sprinkle the streusel over the apples.

6. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 375. It is done when a knife inserted in the center slides in easily (the apples should be fork-tender).

7. Let stand for a few minutes before serving hot or room temperature.

8. Serve with ice cream and this amazing caramel sauce.

Bon Appetit!
