    Who else is ready for backyard barbecues and cold summer desserts?

  • True Story. I had no clue this was actually called Dutch Apple Pie until recently. Fran, a family friend, shared her recipe years ago and I've always just called it hers. Classic apple pie filling gets covered in a blanket of buttery, cinnamon sugar-packed crumble. A must make!

    Want to know what I love best about apple pie? It's perfect any time of year. Yes, apples are in season in the fall, but they're usually available in the grocery stores all year long and this Dutch Apple Pie never disappoints. It's my favourite. I love the crumble that goes on top, it's totally craveable! In fact, I may have, on more than one occasion, just made the crumble topping to snack on and I've used it in this Dutch Apple Pie Milkshake.

Years ago, I happened to pop in for a visit at my Grandma's and got invited to stay for dinner and dessert. My grandparents nephew and his wife were visiting and she had made this pie for dessert. Needless to say, I was the first to volunteer to clean the dishes, in the hopes that I could scoop out any extra crumbs.
