For the apples, I used Red Delicious and Granny Smith, since they happened to be on sale. (Trying to be frugal) I also used a 9in pie pan.
First attempt, I sliced the apples and didn't melt the butter. I liked it, but I felt like it wanted to be more of an apple pie. Second attempt, I cut the apples into small pieces. And for the crumbles, I melted butter and then added all the dry ingredients to that. I think it was easier to eat (especially when you use a crappy plastic fork at work!)

| My second attempt |
Both ways tasted super delicious and had just enough sweetness with the tart. I didn't peel the apples on either attempt, but I think it adds to the flavor.
