1 cup sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon (plus additional for sprinkling)
½ cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter (1 stick), cubed
*¾ cup flour

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Wash, core, peel and slice apples. Arrange apples in an 8 x 8-inch ovenproof pan. Combine sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and water in a saucepan and heat & stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and pour over apples.
In a bowl, combine flour, salt and cubed butter. Cut with a pastry cutter or fork until the size of small peas. Crumble flour mixture evenly over the apple mixture.
