Easy Apple Crumble for Dessert
I would be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn’t like the sweet aroma of baked apples, cinnamon and sugar. This Apple Crumble is easy to make for dessert. It is real comfort food for cold nights and, as so many people are now following a gluten-free diet, it also ticks the box on that. This dessert is a great option for Thanksgiving for those who do not like pumpkin pie. While you are enjoying dessert, maybe it is time to start thinking about Provence for the Holidays.
