We had a big bag of apples from my brother-in-law sitting on our counter, and I decided I should make something with them. I keep losing all my apple crumble recipes, so I found a new one to try tonight. I modified this from a recipe on AllRecipes based on some user comments and what I had on-hand. I'm still kind of in heaven over how good it was. Even Jim loved it and he typically doesn't like apple desserts.
8-10 apples, peeled and sliced (I actually used 7 apples but I think it could have used a little more)
1 package strawberry flavored Jell-O (I used a 3 oz pkg but the original recipe called for a 6 oz pkg)
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
heavily sprinkled cinnamon
light sprinkling of nutmeg
Slice your apples and lay them out in a 9 x 12 baking dish (I put mine in two 8 x 8 dishes). Sprinkle your dry Jell-O package over the apples.
Melt your butter, and mix it with the flour, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. I didn't measure the cinnamon and nutmeg but I used a lot of cinnamon and sprinkled the nutmeg 3 or 4 times (so 3 or 4 dashes)? The original recipe didn't call for cinnamon or nutmeg but I couldn't imagine apple crumble without them, and I'm glad I added them.
Sprinkle the topping over the apples, and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream or some kind of whipped cream topping.
Mmmm, this sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteI had some and it was yummy! I loved the crumble, and I have a really hard time getting a good crumble.
