APPLE CRUMBLE

One of my year-round favorite desserts is a fruit crisp. In the summer I make it with fresh peaches, nectarines and berries. In the winter I use apples and pears. It takes a few minutes to prepare and is always a crowd-pleaser.

This savory, sweet and spicy pumpkin flan is silky smooth with a kick of spicy toasted pumpkin seeds. It is the perfect make-ahead dessert as it needs to be made at least the day before you serve it. BTW, it is gluten-free.
