Apple CrispJock Bradley
Effort Level: I
This is a pretty common and easy trip dessert. You can use fresh or dried apples.
Often people add rolled oats or granola to the topping, but in my opinion that can taste too much like breakfast. Without the oats and with lots of sugar it's a gooey and crunchy dessert.
