- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup oats

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Ensure a 10-inch cast-iron skillet is ready for baking.
- Wash and slice apples into uniform thin wedges, approximately 1/4-inch thick. Remove any seeds or stems.
- In a mixing bowl, combine sliced apples with 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Gently toss to coat apples evenly.

- Transfer seasoned apple slices into the buttered skillet, spreading them in an even layer.
- In a separate bowl, create the crumble topping by mixing flour, remaining brown sugar, oats, and crumbled granola.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apple layer, covering the entire surface.

- Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Tips
- • Choose firm, slightly tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best flavor and texture • Cut apples into uniform thickness to ensure even cooking • Use a cast-iron skillet for the most even heat distribution and beautiful presentation • Don't overmix the crumble topping—keep it slightly chunky for the best crispy texture • Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes after baking to allow the filling to set and become less runny • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven to maintain the crisp topping
