This recipe looks so good and it is easy to make! I wonder if you could halve this recipe and still have it turn out OK? That way it would be good for singles and couples since it should be served warm. Could you use a 21 oz can of apples? That would make it quick and easy.

Delicious --- my only change would be to use a 9 x 13 pan. Way too much topping for a 8/9 in pan ... I used a 7 x 11. I might add 1 more apple with the 9 x 13 pan ... still lots of topping ... I did not peel my apples. Used an apple corer and then cut each of the 8 pieces in half ... Husband really likes it... just finished a bowl full. A definite will make again.

looks scrumpdillyishish! will make tonight!

sounds yummy!
