Some people enjoy a sweet side dish, and others, like myself, think that these totally belong in the dessert course. Mini apple crumb pies would be very time-consuming. These squares taste exactly the same, with much less prep time.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease or line a 10- x 15-inch jelly roll pan with Gefen Parchment Paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add in chunks of margarine and combine. Mixture should have a crumbly texture.
In a small bowl, combine egg yolk and parve milk. Add to flour mixture and mix until fully incorporated and dough is smooth.
Spread dough over the bottom of prepared pan.
Notes:
Make sure to roll the dough for the bottom layer very thin.
In a large mixing bowl (you can use the same bowl), toss sliced apples with sugar and cinnamon until fully coated.
Spread apples over dough layer.
In a large mixing bowl (you can use the same bowl again), combine all Crumb Topping ingredients to form a streusel consistency.
Add crumb topping to cover apples in baking pan.
Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool.
Cut into squares and sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar.
Serve either as a side dish, or as dessert. Squares can be served at room temperature, or warm with a scoop of ice cream on top.
this looked like such a pretty delicious recipe, but unfortunately the proportions are just totally off and this recipe flat out doesn’t work. I would not recommend making.
Question Does the crumb topping get soggy if you freeze it (and then defrost and warm up)?
It shouldn’t get soggy. Once you warm it up it should crisp up a little but it won’t get super crispy.
