I read "Ratchet" and hear Rat Shit. I would consider getting one as a gift for a special someone if it actually said that.

My Christmas wish is for world peace and for Kanye & Kimmy to just motherflippin elope and move to Europe.

Oh yes, of course that is true. IF I lived only in Spain, for my entire life. Under a rock. But I didn't live under a rock. And not in one country. I lived in three of the english speaking countries with my senses fully functioning, where apple crumble, crisp and cobbler are a common desserts AND I ATE THEM. They…

In what world do you defend someone with the excuse that they write so "very properly" that they can't possibly be a native english speaker and then say it is a compliment?

What kind of a person doesn't gain any knowledge about where he or she lives ? I am curious about the world I live in which ...and about all 7 countries so far. The more you say... go back under your rock.

Really, NON-NATIVE? More proper than the situation calls for? - Gah- so sorry, I don't "dumb down" to do internet comments. Goat turds to both of you... get this into your pointy alien heads- I am a "she".

You are an idiot. It is pertinent to the fact that crumble is British, crisp American. Your belief that I am pretentious just because I haven't lived my entire life in a bubble speaks more about your insecurities than anything. You are not adding anything to the conversation...YOU should go clean your oven. If you…

and it would be delicious!

Well I am going to try it your way next time (aka tomorrow)!

I may sound like a douche to you... however I'm just generally curious, well read and like my food particularly crumble! I'm also not American and have lived in the US, the UK and in Australia, so certain differences might be more significant to me than you? So back to cobbler vs crumble. "Basically a crisp" I can…

Stops the apple from exploding- it swells when heated- however if you are peeling some skin from the top of the apple perhaps you are achieving the same thing. I made these last Monday- so quick, easy and delicious. I think my kids make them at camp too. Man I am so hungry now!!!!!

Ok- apparently addition of nuts make it a crisp? I have always added almonds etc to my crumble topping. On the other hand I have never seen ready made crumble mixes unlike the apple crisp mixes I always see in the produce sections here. When I told a neighbour, who was fretting that she didn't have her mix, that she…

and score around midline of apples with knife before stuffing and baking. You could possibly bake small apples in muffin tins with a liner.

or almonds, or dried cranberries, or shredded coconut.

I like to use any oat, nut fruit , museli, granola type cereal and extra slivered almonds in the crumble. It's delicious with greek yohgurt for breakfast.

Pink lady is the perfect apple!

I have one of these- it pays for itself this time of year !

no..not apple crisp.

The sugar in the crumble will caramelize and can burn easily. On the one hand you don't want sodggy crumble and on the other- you don't want burnt. I'd suggest putting foilloosely on top if it is looking as if it is going to burn when reheating.

Go ahead- don't peel those apples. Report back to us once you have removed skins from teeth . OR core apple, do shallow cut at midline around apples (not from top to bottom- the equator), then stuff with crumble mixture. Bake. enjoy.
