I live in apple country and there were a lot of apples this year. This is one good way to use them, and it doesn't take a lot of time to make.

Only one word.....DELICIOUS!!! We took it as an extra dessert to a birthday party. People were bypassing the birthday cake to get seconds. The pan was almost clean when we left! We had either vanilla ice cream or Cool Whip to put on top. Either one was good. Also, we used Golden Delicious apples. SOOOO good.

I made this as recipe is and it taste's good but I didn't like that the bottom layer was a little soggy so next time I make this dish I may change the layers to apples on bottom & crust on top and see if I like that better. Good recipe though would make again. Thanks.

This is a delicious recipe. As suggested by others I decreased the brown sugar to a half cup. Wanting a little different twist I also added a package of Ocean Spray blueberry flavored craisins. It turned out to be a good flavor combination with the apples. Will be making this again.

This is such a great recipe! We did make a few adjustments. For the sauce to put on the apples, we halved everything except the vanilla. For the crust/crumb mixture, we only put in 2/3 cup of brown sugar. Next time we will try 1/2 cup as it was still plenty sweet! My husband made it and he loved how easy it was!

Great recipe! I reduced the granulated sugar by 1/3 cup, and it turned out great! Next time I will add more cinnamon to the boiled mixture.
