Inspired by the bright flavors of cranberry sauce, tangy cranberries and sweet orange zest add a floral tartness to this apple crisp, topped with an oatmeal cookie crumble studded with almonds. The crumble topping can be made and frozen up to 1 week ahead of time while the full crisp can be assembled and refrigerated up to 1 day before, so it can easily be baked to serve after Thanksgiving dinner.

Steps:
- Make the crumble:
- Mix flour, granulated sugar, oats, brown sugar, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add butter and mix with your hands until mixture feels like damp sand and clumps form. Add almonds and mix with a wooden spoon until evenly distributed and large, walnut-sized clumps form. Freeze 30 minutes.
- Make the filling:
- Toss apples, cranberries, granulated sugar, flour, orange zest and juice, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Bake the crisp:
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F. Place baking dish on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet (if using a Dutch oven, you don't need the baking sheet).
- Toss apple mixture again, then transfer to baking dish, leaving some juices behind. Break crumble into smaller pieces, leaving some larger clumps. Top apples with crumble, mounding slightly if needed.
- Bake apple crisp until crumble is golden brown and filling is bubbling through in the center, about 1 hour. Transfer baking dish to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream topped with almonds.
- Do Ahead
- Crumble can be made 1 week ahead; cover and freeze. Crisp can be assembled 1 day ahead; cover and chill.
