Streusel Crumb Topped Apple Pie
"Tart Granny Smith apples and nutmeg are key to giving this pie a tangy flavor. This recipe is very easy to make, yet produces a quality apple pie. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream and drizzled with warm caramel sauce is nice too."

My husband made this and said it was real easy to make. The taste was AWESOME!!!! He did change it up a little. He used Granny Smith and Gala apples. -
I made this tonight for the first time with gala apples. It was delicious and super easy! I may start making it to bring along to holiday get togethers.
