If you are looking for a warm and cozy fall breakfast to pair with your coffee, look no further. I recommend making this recipe on Sunday to enjoy each morning throughout the week. I made sure to include large pieces of crumb topping because let's face it... the crumble topping is the best part of any crumb or coffee cake.

After you make this gorgeous crumb cake, you have to give a few other healthier fall recipes a try! I recommend Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal Bars, Healthy Pumpkin Cookies with Almond Flour and Healthy Chocolate Pumpkin Pie.

    Anytime Iโ€™ve baked with apples it gets soggy and itโ€™s usually a fail. Except, this time! ๐Ÿ™‚ Simple to make and over the top delicious!! The only problem is how to stop at 1 slice.

      Hi! You can use another liquid sweetener. I do love the maple flavor with the apple though!
