1 cup brown sugar
Pinch of salt

Roll up tightly and slice into ½-inch rounds, like mini cinnamon rolls
Press cinnamon roll rounds, cut side down, into a clear 9-inch pie plate
Press until flat, covering the entire pan, making sure there are no spaces between the rolls
To make apple mixture:
Peel, core and slice apples into thin slices
In a large bowl, gently stir apple slices with flour, brown sugar and cinnamon until evenly coated
Spread apple mixture evenly over the crust
To make crumbs:
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, salt and butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly
Sprinkle the crumble over the apples
Bake pie until the top and crust are a golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 35-40 minutes, if it starts to brown too early, cover top with foil to prevent it from getting too dark
Remove from oven and cool completely

Using a pastry bag or Ziploc bag, pipe the icing on top of the crumble
