That sure sounds good. I'm going to try it!

When I make a crumb topping, I make 3 or 4 times the recipe, use what I need, and put the rest in a zip-lock bag in the freezer. It will last a year or more that way, and be there when you need to whip up a quick dessert.

What a great idea!!! I will do that from now on. That would make this recipe even less work with really no mess at all.
Great idea. Thanks. Debbie

I was going to say what a great idea also. I can't imagine why it never crossed my mind. Let me see if I can find the "duh" smiley. Couldn't find it.
