Julia Child’s Boeuf Bourguignon 

Apple Crisp recipe from The Chunky Chef. To make Kari’s breakfast/brunch version, sub maple syrup for the sugar in the apples, and bake them with cranberries in the oven until tender and jammy. Mix up crumble topping and bake SEPARATELY from the fruit for added crunch (use gf oats if you like!). Add crumble topping to roasted fruit before serving. Offer whole milk Greek yogurt as an optional topping!
