While I was up there my Gran asked for help pealing and chopping up some desert apples. She was making a crumble which intrigued me. I hadn't made an apple crumble since I was at school and that was decades ago now.
I watched her closely and later on in the week I decided to make my own.
It turned out well I think :)
You'll Need
2 large cooking apples
3 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp water
2oz butter
2oz caster sugar
4oz plain flour
To Make
Preheat the oven to 180C
Start by peeling and chopping the apples, disposing of the skin and core.
Add the apple chunks, granulated sugar and water to a pan and simmer on a low heat till the apples have softened and it resembles apple sauce.
Spoon the apple mix into ovenproof dishes and sprinkle the flour mix over the top to create a crust.
Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
You can make 2 family sized portions or 8 individual portions with this recipe.
You can also make the crumbles and freeze prior to cooking. Just make sure the apple mix cools down completely before you freeze.
