My favourite autumn dessert is Apple Crumble. Growing up, my Mom used to make it on Sunday night. Usually after a really good meal like Stuffed Squash or pork roast. It is the best way to finish off a meal. Fortunately it is unbelievably easy to make:
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. rolled oats (quick cooking)
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (just shake some in)
1/4 c. butter
6 apples, peeled and cut into thin slices
Place apple slices in even layer at bottom of baking dish. Mix first 5 ingredients together. Cut butter into dry mixture to form small crumbled mixture. Place over apples in even layer.
Cook in microwave oven for approximately 8 minutes on high. This time will vary depending on size of apples, and power of your microwave. It's done when apples are fork tender. A cold scoop of vanilla ice cream is the best accompaniment to the warm Crumble. This serves 4-6 people very generously.

But I don't always want to have company over in order to make this. And let's face it, if I made a full batch for myself, it would be gone immediately. (I have NO willpower want it comes to sweets!) Quarter the ingredient quantities and microwave in a small bowl for amount 4-5 minutes.
Eat and Enjoy.
