1 stick butter, unsalted and melted, plus more for the dish
4 golden delisious apples, peeled, cored and cut into 3/4 inch pieces
2 c blackberries
1/3 c sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
finely grated lemon zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 c sugar cones, crushed (about 6 cones)
1/2 c packed light brown sugar
1/2 c almonds, chopped
1/2 tsp salt
vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, for topping (optional)

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 1 1/2 quart baking dish. Toss the apples, blackberries, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, the lemon zest and juice, flour and 4 tablespoons melted butter in a large bowl.
2. In another bowl, combine the cones, brown sugar, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, the almonds, salt and remaining 4 tablespoons of melted butter.
3. Pour half of the apple-berry mixture into the prepared baking dish. Scatter half of the cone mixture on top. Spread the remaining apple-berry mixture on top, then sprinkle with the remaining cone mixture. Bake until the apples are soft and the topping is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer the dish to a rack and let sit 10 minutes before serving. Top with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
