Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in rolled oats until evenly distributed.
- Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown.
- Let cool completely on the baking sheet. The topping will crisp as it cools.
- Break into small crumbles and store in an airtight container.
Tips
- For extra crunch, add 1/4 cup chopped nuts (pecans or almonds) with the oats.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
- Sprinkle over ice cream, yogurt, or baked fruit desserts.
