Notes
To get the best flavor and texture from this recipe, use a baking variety apple with more acidity. Granny Smith, Empire, and Jonathan are good choices, because they are tart and firm.
BERRY GOOD TIP
Apples can be replaced with fresh berries, but be sure to sprinkle 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour over them before covering with the crumble. The flour will help bind the juices given off by the berries and keep the crumble from getting too soggy.
