1 deep-dish pie crust

5 cups apples - peeled,cored and thinly sliced
1/2 cup white sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup white sugar
3/4 cup all-purose flour

1 hammer

preheat oven to 200 deg Celsius.

pound cinnamon with a hammer if you don't have it ground.
While cutting apples,mess up the kitchen and drop apple bits all over the place.
Arrange apple slices in unbaked pie shell.
mix 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon.sprinkle over apples.

mix 1/3 cup sugar with flour.cut in butter until crumble.Spoon mixture over apples.
bake in oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until apples are soft and top is lightly browned.if crust is too soft,throw it back into the oven and bake for another 20 minutes at 220 deg Celsius.

sorry for the lack of photos for the other steps.i was hysterical.the mess,everything went wrong.but the apple crumble didn't.the apples weren't soft enough and the crust was a bit soft.

im darn proud of it.
