I cannot believe it is almost November. These past few months have flown by and I am having a hard time keeping up. The weather is finally cooling down here in Texas so I am getting excited and feeling the holiday spirit. We have been in full remodel mode over at my house and so I am trying to keep things as normal as possible and breakfast and snacks are our gathering time. Before everyone runs out the door for school and when the kids get home and we can all sit and chat before the rest of the day takes over. This busy season, cool weather and hungry kids calls for this scrumptious Apple Cinnamon Crumb Cake. We are a big banana bread family, but I knew we needed to change things up and this is pulling through as a favorite!

Weather you just grabbed extra apples at the grocery store or you have ventured out to an apple orchard and have a lot of apples to work with, this recipe is sure to win some points with your family. Enjoy!
