Notes
-
- Thin Even Apples Slices. Slice your apples relatively thinly so they get nice and soft while they bake. Make sure they are all about the same thickness.
-
- Mix Properly. Be sure to thoroughly mix your dry filling ingredients before adding the apples to ensure everything is well incorporated.
-
- Cool After Baking. Be sure to let your crumble cool for about 15 minutes so the filling can thicken and be eaten safely.
-
- Serving. This caramel apple dessert is perfect with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee or tea. Outside of that, a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream makes the perfect accompaniment for this recipe.
