1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups sliced almonds
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 stick margarine, melted and cooled
3 egg whites, not beaten
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Wende's Apple Pear Crumble
By Wende Attman Levitas
Wende's two children Harris and Erin love to help cook this dish with their mom.
It's fast and easy with only six ingredients!
5-6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled 1/2 cup sugar
2-3 Bartlett pears, peeled
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup flour
8 tablespoons (1 stick) margarine
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Cut apples and pears into wedges and place in a 9 inch pie pan, filling above top of pan as fruit will cook down.
Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon and margarine in a food processor until well blended but a little chunky. Spoon mixture over apples and pears until completely covered in a thick layer.
Bake 45 to 60 minutes or until topping is well browned.
If serving with a dairy meal, especially great when served warm with ice cream.
