Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly and tender when pierced with a fork. If the topping starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely cover it with aluminum foil.

Remove from the oven and let the crumble cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to set slightly. Serve warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
