This recipe is WONDERFUL!! I made it for my family about a year ago and I am now asked to make it whenever I come home for a visit! The sugar can easily be reduced to 1 cup (careful reducing it any more than that though) and the crip still tastes fabulous if you subsitute apple sauce for butter in the main mixture. Makes us feel a little less guilty about eating seconds, thirds and fourths.

For less of a desserty flavor, use 3/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon maple syrup in the batter.
