Ingredients
  

4 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced

1 teaspoon lemon juice

½ cup rolled oats

½ cup brown sugar (packed)

½ cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Optional toppings: vanilla ice cream or whipped cream

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice until coated. This will help prevent browning and enhance flavor.

    Make the Crisp Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly and well combined.

      Layer the Ingredients: In a small baking dish that fits your air fryer, spread the apple mixture evenly across the bottom. Sprinkle the crisp topping over the apples, making sure to cover the surface evenly.

        Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). Once preheated, place the baking dish in the air fryer basket and cook for about 20-25 minutes. Check periodically; the apples should be tender and the topping golden brown.

          Serve: Carefully remove the dish from the air fryer. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
