Why This Recipe Is So Flavorful
Chef's Cooking Tips
- Make sure to evenly spread the topping to get a crisp, golden crust all over.
- Let the dessert cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the caramel to thicken slightly.
Step 1
Place an unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a large pot, then fill the pot with enough water to cover the can completely. Bring the water to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 3 hours, adding more hot water as needed to keep the can submerged. After that, carefully remove the can with tongs and let it cool for around 20 minutes.
Step 2
While the caramel is cooling, toss the sliced apples in a big bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together a tablespoon of flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then mix this spice blend into the apples. Transfer the apple mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Mix the vanilla extract into a little water and sprinkle it evenly over the apples.
Step 3
Once the condensed milk is cool, open the can carefully, then stir the caramelized milk until smooth. Drizzle this delicious caramel right over the apples.
Step 4
For the topping, combine the oats, a cup of flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture becomes crumbly. Spread this crumble evenly over the apple and caramel layers.
Step 5
Bake everything in a preheated oven until the apples are soft and the topping turns a lovely golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let it cool a bit before serving and enjoy!
