Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt unsalted butter.
Add chopped apples, light brown sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, water, and salt. Stir well and cook until apples soften (about 5–7 minutes). Set aside to cool.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Incorporate cut pieces of unsalted butter into the dry mix using a pastry cutter until crumbly.
