Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Toss sliced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step 3

Combine flour, rolled oats, cereal nuggets, 1/2 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup white sugar, and 1/4 cup brown sugar in a large bowl; set aside.

Step 4

Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in remaining 1/3 cup white sugar, remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar, and cinnamon until sugars begin to dissolve, 3 to 4 minutes. Add apples and water; cook and stir until apples soften and coated with sauce, 4 to 5 minutes.

Step 5

Pour apple mixture into a 2-quart baking dish; sprinkle cereal nugget topping evenly over top.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until top browned and bubbling around edges, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
