As you may have noticed, I really like apple desserts.  I’m constantly looking for new recipes to make healthier.  As I was cleaning my kitchen the other day, I found this booklet of really delicious but really unhealthy recipes my mom had given me a few years ago.  I decided to healthify the apple crumble and took the recipe from a whopping 600+ calories per serving to a more reasonable 142.
