Crumb Topping for Pies

Crumb topping: This is wonderful for a quick way to top off a fruit pie without having to have another crust


in place on the top. Mix in a bowl, 1 cup of all-purpose unbleached flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup

butter (cut this in the flour/sugar mixture with a pastry blender or a large fork). Then add in 1 cup of rolled oats. Mix well and sprinkle all over top of the pie and bake. Most pies take approximately 35-40 minutes to bake at 400 degrees. Check occasionally for a lovely golden brown color as oven temperatures vary.
