Mix remaining ingredients with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over apples. Place a piece of foil lightly on top. Bake at 400°F/200°C on lowest oven rack for 50 to 60 minutes, removing the foil for the last 15 minutes of baking time. Serve with a dollop of Crème Chantilly.

Crème Chantilly
Chill the small bowl and beaters of an electric mixer (if in a hurry, place in freezer). Beat the cream in chilled bowl until it begins to thicken. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and beat until stiff. Do not overbeat.
