Notes
Prep recipe in advance! Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a small container. Prep apples and add them to a large bowl and add 1/4 lemon juice and cover apples in bowl with water and cover. Add oats, flour, cinnamon, and salt to a medium bowl and cover. Drain apples before using. Cook apples while you're prepping your dinner, and then put it all in the oven when you sit down for dinner so that it's ready when you're ready!
If you choose not to peel apples, just make sure that you cook the apples in the cast iron until they are soft, which may take a little bit longer.
