Apple Crumble

Apples are in season now, nicely priced and a great variety available to choose from here in Vancouver. I like the Ambrosia variety from British Columbia, it has just the right crisp and sweetness. I admit I do get carried away sometimes and add shredded apples into my salad and oatmeal too. :-) In any case, I am posting a simple Apple Crumble recipe today. This is one of my all time favorites. So, do try this recipe.
