Grampy doesn't live here anymore but it was his birthday so I made apple crisp to celebrate his 89th birthday anyway.

Now I'm ready to get started.


I like cinnamon but not too much of it.

I'm out of brown sugar So I made my own brown sugar with molasses and white sugar.

It looks about like brown sugar now.


Ready for the oven.

Let it cool a bit before eating.

Top with maple syrup whipped cream and serve.

Happy Birthday Grampy!
