By BobD

Ingredients

• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter
• 2 cups granola without dried fruit
• 3 1/2 pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter a shallow 3-quart baking dish. In a food processor, pulse 1 cup of the flour with the brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Pulse in the butter. Pulse in the granola. Transfer the topping to a bowl.

In a large bowl, toss the apples with the granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour, then spread in the baking dish. Sprinkle on the topping and bake for 1 hour, or until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbling. Let cool for 20 minutes, then serve.
