I found the recipe for this Apple Streusel on http://jesstyler.wordpress.com/ and thought it looked really good, and it's apple so I can pretend it's healthy, right?
Having really just gotten into baking and cooking more I decided to start with something very simple, and this definitely fit. It took about 15-20 minutes to prep, most of that was time spent slicing the apples, and I just had it baking while I fixed dinner on the stove.
Alright, now on to the recipe:
Apple Streusel
From Penzeys
As found on http://jesstyler.wordpress.com/
Ingredients:
3 good-sized fresh apples - Cortland or McIntosh are best (I used McIntosh)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp. vanilla
Topping:
1/2 stick cold butter
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Grease bottom only of small casserole dish (4 cups or so).
Peel and core apples and slice and place in a bowl.
Top with sugar, cinnamon and vanilla, toss to coat. Set aside while preparing topping.
Make streusel by cutting the cold butter into a bowl, adding flour, sugar and cinnamon and rubbing it through your fingers until streusel is course texture.
Put the seasoned apples into pan and top with streusel.
Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes until the streusel is golden brown and the apples are starting to bubble up through the topping

Mmm - I love apples in baked goods and this looks wonderful... and probably great topped with ice cream too! :)
We didn't have any ice cream when we had it, but it would be wonderful with a scoop of vanilla.
Yes, you can TOTALLY pretend it's healthy! :)
