Instructions
Prepare the apples
Peel, core, and slice the apples into even 1/4-inch slices for consistent cooking.
Season the filling
Toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch until evenly coated. The cornstarch will create a glossy sauce as it bakes.
Make the crisp topping
Combine rolled oats, chopped walnuts, maple syrup, cinnamon, and sea salt in a bowl. Mix until the oats and nuts are evenly coated with syrup.
Assemble and bake
Transfer the apple mixture to a baking dish, spread evenly, then sprinkle the oat-nut topping over the apples. Bake until the topping is golden and the apples are tender but not mushy.
