Apple Crunch

By srumbel

Oh how I love this dessert! I believe I love it more than apple pie. The topping is wonderful and has a wonderful texture. I hope you try it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Ingredients

• 4 large apples, peeled (I used my apple/peeler/corer/slicer)
• 1 t. cinnamon
• some freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• Topping
• 1 cup flour
• 1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 6 T. melted butter

Preparation

Step 1

Lightly butter inside of 9-inch pie plate. Place sliced apples in dish. Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar over apples. Pour the water evenly over this.

For Topping: Mix flour and brown sugar together and add the melted butter. Stir together and set aside for 5 minutes, then break apart with fingertips. Sprinkle on top of the apples.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes, checking for the tenderness of the apples and for the topping to be golden brown.
