Ingredients

Filling

  • 8 cups apples peeled and sliced (about 7 apples)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Topping

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  • Mix the apples, brown sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg together, and set aside.
  • For the topping, in a medium mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon, then set aside.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add the butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla. Beat with a mixer until fluffy.
