Step 3: In another bowl, mix flour, oats, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs

Notes

Keep your butter cold when making the crumble topping for perfect crunch.

Don't skip tossing the fruit with cornstarch to prevent a watery crumble.

Taste your apples before adding sugar and adjust accordingly.
