An apple crisp recipe or a rhubarb crumble can be perfect for a light and sweet fall treat, since both highlight the season’s finest produce and go well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped cream to make them feel even more indulgent. And if you have a crumble recipe that is a go-to for a base, you can then experiment with different kinds of fruit as well as spices and sweeteners.
You can make a gingerbread apple crisp, for example—gingerbread is a fall spice that pairs nicely with apple, oats and vanilla bean, so add a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top. If you’re looking for a few crumble recipes to try out at home, here are a couple that the whole family will love.
