Preheat over to 350 degrees. Peel and slice apples. Toss apples in a bowl with ½ cup granulated sugar and tapioca. Fill an 8 inch square baking dish with the mixed apples so that they are generously piled.
In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender and blend mixture until you have a crumbly consistency.
Put brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and butter mixture on top of apples in baking dish and bake in over for 60 minutes or until the mixture is lightly brown and bubbling.
- Seek out peaches that are heavy for their size, as that’s usually a good indicator that the fruit will be juicy.
- Press peaches gently at the top near where the stem was—if the flesh yields slightly, the fruit is ripe and ready to eat. Harder peaches can be ripened at home, but you’ll want to skip any that are rock hard, as those were picked too soon. Really soft peaches are over-ripe but they’re still good for baking. Avoid peaches with bruises, scratches or soft spot.

- To speed up the ripening process, place the fruit in a paper bag and leave it on the countertop. If peaches ripen too quickly, store them in the refrigerator for a few days, but keep a close eye—wrinkled skin means the fruit is starting to dry out.
