Peel and core 6-7 Granny Smith and 6-7 Golden Delicious apples.

Add lemon juice to prevent oxidation and enhance flavor.

Add sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch to the apples; toss to combine.

Transfer the apple mixture to a pre-buttered cast iron pan.

In a bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of cold butter, a pinch of salt, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and flour.

Use a pastry cutter to mix the butter into the flour until crumbly; two forks can be used as an alternative.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apple mixture in the cast iron pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
