Apple Coconut Crumble - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (18 ounce) package french white cake mix
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup butter
8 cups apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1/3 cup lemon juice

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Grease a 9 x 13 inch cake pan.
In a large bowl, combine cake mix and coconut.
Cut in butter until crumbly. (will be very dry).
Place apple slices in prepared pan.
Sprinkle with sugar.
Sprinkle cake mixture over apples.
Combine water and lemon juice.
Pour evenly and slowly over crumble, moistening as much as possible.
Bake for 55 minutes or until top is light golden brown and apples are tender.
Serve warm or cold with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Keep apple slices quite chunky to ensure that they do not become mushy in baking.
OPT. - add 1 cup of fresh or frozen cranberries to the apples (I omit this).
