Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish or a similar sized oven-safe dish.
- Prepare the apricot filling: In a large bowl, toss the halved and pitted apricots with the granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, lemon juice, and cinnamon until evenly coated. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Prepare the oat crumble: In a separate medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar, and nutmeg.
- Cut in the butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use your fingertips or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Assemble and bake: Sprinkle the oat crumble evenly over the apricot layer. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly.
- Let the crisp cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. It pairs wonderfully with vanilla bean ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream.
Notes
For easier prep, you can substitute frozen apricots (do not thaw) for fresh ones; you may need to add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
