About
George Washington may not have cut down a cherry tree, but he did have a massive sweet tooth. George Washington's Apple Berry Crumble would have been the sort of dessert he loved. Jammy apples, tart cranberries, and sweet blackberries mixed with smoky brown sugar and fragrant vanilla bubble away under a crunchy, buttery, and delicately spiced crumble topping. With plenty of ice cream (just the way our first president liked it) George Washington's Apple Berry Crumble is a patriotic dessert!
