• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 2/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
• ¾ cup crisp apple sparkling ice
• 8 red apples (gala or fuji preferred)
• 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1½ tablespoon cornstarch

1. Combine brown sugar and flour in a mixing bowl, and cut in the butter with your hands. Mixture should look coarse with some chunks the size of peas. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to harden up. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pour the crumble on. Bake for 12-18 minutes or until light brown. Place baking tray on a wire rack to cool.

3. Whisk together the cornstarch with Sparkling ICE in a small mixing bowl, set aside.
4. In a medium saucepan melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.
5. Add the apples, salt, and cinnamon. Sautee over a medium flame for 3 minutes.
6. Pour the Sparkling Ice and cornstarch mixture into the pot, stirring continuously.
7. Simmer for 5 minutes.
8. Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter.
9. Break the cooled crumble up with your hands to desired size.
