Cranberry-Apple Crumble
Cranberry apple crumble is a warm, comforting dessert that combines tart cranberries and sweet, spiced apples under a buttery, golden-brown crumble topping. The filling is often enhanced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of orange zest, creating a balance of sweet and tangy flavors. The crumbly topping, made from flour, oats, sugar, and butter, adds a delightful crunch. Served warm, it pairs beautifully with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
