Ingredients

2 lbs Granny Smith Apples about 4 large apples
1/4 cup caramel sauce plus more for topping
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter

For the topping

1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup Old Fashioned oats
6 tablespoon cold butter cubed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread 1 tablespoon butter in a 10 inch cast iron skillet or baking dish.
Peel, core and slice the apples and place into a medium bowl. Toss with sugar, flour and cinnamon and pour into the skillet or baking dish. Drizzle 1/4 cup caramel over apples.
In a medium bowl add the flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, oats and cold butter. Mix using a fork or your hands until crumbly. Spread evenly over apples.
Bake 30-40 minutes or until apples are tender and caramel is bubbly.

Notes

If you don't want to make this in a cast iron skillet, you can use a baking dish. Just keep an eye on it as it cooks.

I like using tart apples like Granny Smith, but if you prefer something sweeter, you can try that.
