Cinnamon Apple Crumble

(From Kelly Hinds)
4 cups (about 2 large) peeled, cored and thinly sliced baking apples
Crispin, Fuji, Golden Delicious or Jonagold are a few good ones
3 T orange juice
1/4 cup sugar

Combine apples and orange juice in large bowl. Stir in granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; toss to coat. Spoon mixture into prepared dish.
Combine brown sugar, flour, and remaining cinnamon in medium bowl. Cut in margarine with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; stir in oats. Sprinkle over apple mixture.
