We are going to use two types of sugar here, white sugar used in the filling, and the brown sugar in the topping, mainly to give the topping a caramel-like flavor. Rolled oats are good for you so yes, let’s have some. Usually, there are no walnuts in apple crumble recipe, but I like walnuts and it adds to the flavor.

How To Store Apple Crumble?

Store? I'm not sure anything will be left to store!! This dessert is usually gone within the same day it is baked, but If you have some leftovers, then you better place it in an airtight container and refrigerate it. When you are ready to have some, take a portion out of the fridge and leave it covered at the countertop for 10 minutes, then warm it in the microwave for 11 to 12 minutes.
