Ingredients (serves 4):
Crumble
- 300g plain flour
- 1 pinch of salt
- 175g unrefined brown sugar
- 200g unsalted butter – at room temperature and cubed
Filling
- 450g cooking apples – peeled, cored and cut into 1cm pieces
- 50g unrefined brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon of plain flour
- 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
Heat the oven upto around 180 degrees C. Pour the flour, sugar and a pinch of salt into a large bowl and mix well. Then you’ll need to rub in the butter a few cubes at a time. This involves putting the cubes of butter into the flour and then getting your hands into the mixture, lifting some up in your hands and rubbing the butter and flour through your fingers. Keep repeating this until all the butter is in the bowl and the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
In another bowl, mix the apples, sugar, flour and cinnamon together lightly. Pour the apple mixture evenly into a greased oven dish. Next, pour the crumble mix over the top, making sure that you create an even crust. Pat the mixture down lightly.
Place the dish into the oven for 40-45 minutes or until the crumble is nice and golden and the fruit is starting to bubble up through the crust. Serve with custard, cream or icecream!
