This is soooo good! Made exactly as directed, except used Braeburns and added about 12 C chopped walnuts. No need to wait for Xmas. Served with honey butter; what a delightful treat with coffee!

We absolutely loved these for our late breakfast this morning. This is a recipe which is easy and quick. The streusel topping is SOOOO nice. The photo is dressed with Christmas wrapping paper and ribbon because this is something I would be proud to serve my clan on Christmas morning. Thanks for posting this one, Redsie.

My kids loved these and no one could tell there was any grated apple in them. Thanks for the recipe.
