2 t lemon juice (do not need if you use a sour apple like granny smith)

1/4 C water

1/2 t cinnamon

6 peeled and sliced large apples (best to use combination of different apples)

3/4 C flour

1/4 t salt

6T butter

Preheat oven 375 deg.

Combine 1/2 C sugar, lemon juice, water, cinnamon in the bottom of a 13×9″ baking dish.

Put in the sliced apples.

Combine the flour, salt, butter and other 1/2 C sugar until crumbly. Spread over apples.

Bake 40 -50 min or until topping is golden brown.

Serve warm with vanila icecream, if desired.
