Apple Crisp

This is a dessert that my grandmother Lillie use to make when I was younger.  If you like apple pie, apple cobbler or any type of apple dessert, you'll love this.  It's very quick and easy to make.  If you fancy yourself a baker, you probably already have the ingredients that you'll need to make this recipe.  The beauty of this dessert is that you can make a large batch of it or follow my lead and make it just for two.

Final Thoughts.....It just wouldn't be right to eat this dessert without a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
