This recipe comes from Parent magazine. The first time I made it, it was 4am and I was up with our first born. She had her days and nights reversed for the first few months so I found myself doing odd things in the middle of the night. My husband was happy to have hot apple crumble, fresh from the oven for breakfast that morning.
