Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a shallow glass baking dish with cooking spray.
In a bowl, toss the apples together with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and lemon juice. Spread evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt.
Stir the melted butter into the flour and oat mixture until evenly combined.
Use your hands to crumble the crisp topping evenly over the apples.
Bake the crisp for 35 - 40 minutes, until the top is lightly browned. Serve warm topped with ice cream.
