I really liked this recipe...I skipped the brandy, because I had everything else on hand. I also eye-balled the measurements. <br /> <br />Unlike other reviewers, I thought the balance of apples to crumble was perfect. I also used granny smith apples because this is what I had on hand...the tartness and crispness was perfect with the amount of sugar, so that could help with people saying the apples were mushy or that the dessert was too sweet.
