Aromatic Apple Filling
Apples are clearly the crucial ingredients. You can make use of cooking apples (or apples for cooking), yet in reality, any kind will certainly do the job as long as you are OK with either a mushier or chunkier apple part.

Delicious Crumb Topping
My love for crumbles dates back to my childhood years. My Grandmother often baked yeast cakes with seasonal fruit and crumble . I used to steal the chunkiest pieces of crumble when the cake was taken out from the oven. I must admit that I additionally used to do it even before the cake was baked! And "the biggest piece of crumble" is a key expression here. When I prepare my crumbly mixture, I ensure I have coarse crumbs. So if after processing, I don't end up with the wanted size, I just by hand put together smaller pieces of the crumb mix.
