I don't make dessert every night, I usually make it on nights we have leftovers or when we are having a light dinner and I know everyone will still have room for dessert. So when my daughter asked if I could make apple crumble I planned dinner around it.
This is another dessert I love, it is simple, it is quick to make, it is delicious. Actually, this is the kind of dessert my whole family loves.
This is a cheap dessert to make, a few apples and a few pantry items. I have used both slivered almonds and sliced almonds (as I didn't have slivered almonds at home when I needed them) both work, however I prefer slivered as it gives you a nice crunch to the crumble. But in all honesty I would use whatever I have in the house.
So if you like apple desserts, try this it is a winner in my house.
