- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoons water or apple cider (apple dependent, see notes)

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

In a large mixing bowl or the baking dish you will be using, toss the apple slices with sugar, water or juice (if using, please see notes), and cinnamon. Mix well to coat the slices completely, and spread in an even layer in an 8x8 glass or ceramic baking dish.

In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and butter cubes with a pie blender or two forks, until well combined and small crumbles form. Lightly pat the topping over apples in the baking dish.
