Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Slice your apples and arrange them evenly in the greased baking dish. Sprinkle with ½ cup of sugar and ground cinnamon, then drizzle water over the apples.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining sugar with softened butter and flour. Blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
