Too bad that when I saved this recipe to my recipe box I couldn't also save the reviews. I ended up with something that was not so good.

It is unfortunate that the Food Network does not give more attention to the accuracy of the recipes posted. The chefs themselves might consider checking the accuracy once it is posted. It would not be that big of a job given than we see reruns and more reruns so it is not that often that a new recipe gets posted. As much as I enjoy Food Network, they seem to take little responsibility for their website. As a result, people waste money on ingredients for a bad recipe.

The written recipe is flawed due to editing.

Too much lemon and the preparation step of mixing a little of the sugar mixture with the apples is screwed up. On the show, Alex mixed the brown sugar, then sprinkied about a tablespoon of just the sugar mixture on the apples and mixed them in.

She then combined the remaining sugar mix with the bread crumbs and finally, poured and mixed the melted butter throughout.

I'll try a teaspoon of lemon juice and skip the zest next time. They bury the apple taste as written.

With those small changes it sould be a pretty good recipe.

She only used the juice and zest of ONE LEMON on the show. It is a typo.

There was WAY too much lemon in this recipe. I don't know if that is a typo or something but I had some friends over for dinner and all 5 of us didn't like it because of the lemon. I would use maybe 1/2 a lemon, 3 is too much. The crumb topping was really good but I followed how Alex made it on the show, not how it is on the recipe. I mixed a little bit of the sugar/spice mix into the apples and then added the butter and bread crumbs to the sugar/spice mix and put that on top of the apples in the baking dish. The topping came out great.
