Cranberry-Apple Crumble
Pears would also be nice in this homey dessert. Prepare the crumble topping (including cutting in the butter), and freeze up to two months. Sprinkle it--still frozen--over the apple mixture just before you put it in the oven.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1/2 cup crumble and 1/2 cup ice cream)
