This is actually one of Chris’s recipes. Have I mentioned before he’s a cook too? I’m a lucky girl. 🥰 His Chilli Con Carne is always on recipe rotation, we must have it at least once every 2 weeks and I LOVE the Sesame Prawn Toast he makes too. So onto his delicious apple crumble recipe. The cooking apples will break down more during the cooking process and the eating apples will retain a bit more texture giving the perfect apple sauce center to the crumble.
What’s the crumble topping made of?
To get the perfectly crunchy apple crumble topping you’re going to want to use:
Cold, unsalted butter2 different types of sugar - caster for regular sweetness and crunch, and soft brown sugar for that slight caramel flavourOats for added texture (this is optional, you can leave them out if you don’t have any in your cupboard)Plain (all purpose) floura pinch of salt
👩‍🍳PRO TIP Squeeze a little lemon juice over the apples as you’re peeling and chopping to stop the apples from turning brown. You can replace half the apples with rhubarb, pear, or blackberries for a different option. This is quite a forgiving recipe and you can mix up the filling with fruit that you’ve got in.
