Apple Crumble

Ingredients

Filling

  • 3 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 2mm or so thick)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • [optional] ¼ tsp ground cinnamon

Crumble

  • ⅓ cup plain flour
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup rolled oats
  • 60g butter, chopped
  • [optional] ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • [optional] ¼ tsp ground nutmeg

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan forced. Combine apples, juice, sugar, cinnamon, and water in small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring for 5 minutes or until apple is slightly softened. Leave in the pan to soak/soften.
  2. To make the crumble, combine the flour, sugar, oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter in a bowl. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Transfer the apples into a 3 cup capacity ovenproof dish, draining off most of the liquid. Sprinkle crumble mixture over the apples. Bake in oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Serve warm with custard, icecream or whipped cream.

Tips

  • Soften the butter for a few seconds in the microwave if it's too solid to squish between fingertips reasonably easily. It should remain solid and not at all runny for the crumble.
  • Using brown sugar will give the dish a slightly rich, carameled taste and colour, but caster sugar can be easily swapped in for a lovely variation!
