Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Set aside a 9×9-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the apples, cranberries, brown sugar, flour, butter, milk, orange juice, orange zest, cinnamon, and vanilla. Toss until evenly coated. Pour into the baking dish.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the mixture until pea-sized clumps form. Sprinkle the mixture over the filling.
Place in the preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes or until the apple slices are tender and the topping is golden brown. You may need to tent the top with foil and cook for the full 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
