Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup light brown sugar 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/3 cup white sugar, or to taste 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 cups apples - peeled, cored and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions
  1. Mix flour, brown sugar, 1/2 cup of white sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Combine butter with the flour mixture using fingers or a fork until coarse crumbs form.
  2. Stir in walnuts and set aside.
  3. Whisk together 1/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Place the apples in a slow cooker, stir in the cornstarch mixture; toss with lemon juice.
