Skillet Apple Crumble

If you're looking for an easy, sweet bite - look no further! A skillet apple crumble is the perfect piece of deliciousness that you need to satisfy your hankering for dessert without completely blowing out your calories. If you cut it down to a couple of apples, it will be perfect for... you guessed it, one lovely couple!


You'll Need:
3 apples of your choice, peeled and cored and sliced thin
2 tsp lemon juice
1/4 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup quick oats
1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
1/3 cup of water


Using an 8 inch cast iron skillet, grease the bottom and the sides.

After peeling, coring, and slicing the apples, toss them in the lemon juice to prevent browning while you prep the rest of the dish.


Arrange the apple slices along the bottom of the skillet.


Mix the rest of the ingredients with a fork to make the topping.


Spread the topping evenly over the apples.

Bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes 
or until the apples are tender and the top is browned.


You won't need whipped cream or ice cream - but it doesn't hurt if you need something a little special! Even a side of strawberries is lovely - or maybe a little warm maple syrup...

Curl up on the couch and enjoy the crisp of the crumble!
