Do you like a crumb topping or pie crust topping for apple pie? (Gingerbread, cake)

I always make a 2 crust apple pie for Thanksgiving. This year I did a crumb topping. I have it the oven right now. Something different for a change.

I like them both! Haven't had a good crumb-topped pie for a long time, so that sounds great.

I am making a pear gingerbread cake for Thanksgiving this year and my daughter will be trying a pumpkin tart from the Harry Potter cookbook. So no pie for us this time!

Pear Gingerbread cake sounds yummy. Could you share the recipe in the recipe forum?

Either, as long as it's served warm, with ice cream!!!

A crumb topping is .. apple crumble. Not apple pie.

I like both.

I prefer crumb topping. It's a way to get some different flavor on there to go with the apple.

Both with ice cream...

Walnuts, cheese and brown sugar pre-melted in butter in it?....just
wondering....once and I'm hooked on 'em all.

I prefer a pastry top, though I'll certainly eat crumb topping. I love apple pie.

As long as you warm it up and top it off with some vanilla bean ice cream I'll eat either one.

Call it what you want; crumble or pie, I still like the crunbled best. I am a huge lover of apple pie, so either is fine, but the crumbled is just a tad bit better.
