Ingredients
- 8 Granny Smith apples (or cooking apples)
- Add other fruit also if you wish
- 5-6 tbsp Sugar
- 60g Brown Sugar
- 65g Castor Sugar
- 125g White Flour
- 65g Oats
- 30g Sesame Seeds
- 30g Sunflower Seeds
- 125g Butter
Cuisine: Cooking time: 70 mins Serving: 8 people
Method
- Peel and slice the apples and lay in the bottom of a casserole dish.
- Add other fruit if you wish.
- Sprinkle with sugar – adjust according to the sweetness of the fruit.
- Add butter, sugar and flour and other ingredients to a mixing bowl and crumble it together with your fingers until everything is well mixed together.
- The crumble mix will go quite “sticky” when it is mixed properly. Spread this over the top of the fruit.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven for 20 minutes at 190C and then reduce to 170C for a further 30 minutes. Remove from the oven after the first 5 minutes of baking and smooth the crumble with a fork. This will give the butter a chance to soften and will allow you to spread the mixture a little better.
- Once the baking is complete, brown under the grill for a minute or two for extra crunch if you prefer.
Meal: Food type:
I actually prefer this recipe with summer fruits like blackcurrants, raspberries, strawberries etc. Mix up the fruit – it’s great! Also I often throw in pumpkin seeds and/or nuts. You can pretty much substitute your favourite nuts/seeds, just keep the total quantities roughly the same as above and it should work out just fine 🙂
