Swedish Apple Pie is a twist on a classic apple pie recipe, featuring a crumbly butter and flour topping instead of a traditional crust. It's a great way to use up apples in the fall when they are plentiful and in season. This recipe comes from Dolores, a Swedish grandmother who has been making this dessert for her family for years. It's a comforting and easy-to-make treat that is sure to please.

6.	In the same bowl, mix together the flour and sugar until well combined.
7.	Add the softened butter and egg, and mix until crumbly.
8.	Spoon the mixture over the top of the apples, spreading it out evenly.
9.	Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown.
10.	Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
