Preparation steps

1.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
2.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Cut in the butter with a pastry knife, or two forks, or with your hands until mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
3.
Peel and chop 4 of the apples. Add chopped apples, butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon to a medium sauce pan and sauté over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove from heat.
4.
Chop the tops off of the remaining 4 apples and reserve for baking. Peel off a spiral of the outside apple skin to decorate the outer flesh. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh of the insides and discard. Remove just enough of the apple to make a "bowl" for the filling.
5.
Fill scooped-out apples with apple filling from the sauce pan. Top with a generous amount of crumble topping.
6.
Place stuffed apples and apple tops on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until crumble topping is crispy and the tops are soft. While baking heat caramel sauce. Serve apples warm with caramel sauce and sifted powdered sugar on top.
