This is one AMAZING recipie!!
Apple and Almond Crumble
It makes roughly 6 - 8 servings, but we usually make it then freeze half for another time!
Ingredients -
Lots of apples (around 850g - 900g[it can be any fruit])
25g light brown sugar
3 tsp grnd cinnamon
1/4 tsp grnd cloves
110g whole almonds (optional)
75g butter diced small
175g self raising flour (sifted)
110g demera sugar
Nice served with custard *mmm*
Pre - heat the oven to 200°C
Take the skin off the apples, cut the cores out (obviously) and slice into thickish kind of slices. Toss the slices into a bowl with the light brown sugar, 1 tsp of the grnd cinnamon and the cloves and place to one side in a baking dish.
Place the butter into a bowl (or similar) with the sifted flour and rub together with the tips of your fingers untill it resembles crumbs, then mix in (still with your fingers) the rest of the cinnamon, the sugar and the almonds (the almonds should already be chopped)
Now all that's left is to sprinkle the crumble mixture over the apples, right to the edge of the dish, and press it down firmly with the flat of your hands (the more tightly packed, the crispier), and finish it off by running a fork lightly over the mixture.
Bake it in the oven for 35 - 40 minutes, and by that time the apples should be soft, and the topping should be goldern brown and crisp.
Leave to rest for 10 - 15 minutes before serving, and like I already mentioned, it's heaven with home made custard *mmmm*
Delicious!!
I would like it if anyone who tries this recipe would rate it (like, 4 star, 3 star etc.)
That would help me give you better recipes!
