I'm sorry I have never written a review for this, I have made it numerous times!!! It's the only apple crisp recipe I use! I don't like oatmeal in mine, and the topping on this is chewy in some spots (sound the outside, of course) and melt in your mouth in others! Thanks for sharing this GREAT recipe, MustangMom!!!
