I have been making this recipe since I was a newlywed. It is a great accompaniment to a chicken or meat main course and can be served as a whole pie or in individual muffin cups.

Yield: one 10-inch (25-centimeter) round pie or 10 mini cobblers

Directions

Prepare the Apple Layer

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

Line and grease a nine-inch (23-centimeter) pie pan or 12 individual tart pans.

Combine ingredients in mixing bowl.

Spread in prepared pan and press down lightly.

Prepare the Crumble Topping

Combine ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mixture should be crumbly.

Sprinkle on top of apples. Pat down lightly.

Bake for one hour or until golden brown.

Tips:

For a smoother consistency, you can mix the crumble topping in a food processor with the S-blade attachment.

Notes:

If you prefer a thicker layer of topping, I recommend doubling the quantities for the topping.
