Main Ingredients

  • 4 cup diced apples peeled
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup packed brown sugar divided; some for apples and topping
  • 2.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.75 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon divided
  • 0.25 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1.25 cup whole milk for batter
  • 0.5 cup beaten eggs about 2 large eggs
  • 2.5 tsp vanilla extract divided
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.25 cup powdered sugar for glaze
  • 2.5 tbsp milk for glaze

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • Toss apples with lemon juice, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Whisk flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, remaining cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
  • In another bowl, whisk whole milk, beaten eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla, and melted butter until smooth.
  • Stir wet mixture into dry ingredients just until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Fold in the apple mixture and any juices.
  • Spread batter in the pan. Sprinkle remaining brown sugar over the top and lightly swirl.
  • Bake 32–38 minutes, until golden and a tester comes out clean.
  • Whisk powdered sugar, glaze milk, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla until smooth.
  • Cool casserole 10 minutes. Drizzle with glaze. Serve warm.

Notes

Try stirring in a handful of toasted pecans or swap the glaze milk for maple syrup for a maple-vanilla drizzle. Store leftovers covered in the fridge up to 3 days; rewarm gently in a 300°F oven or the microwave before serving.
