[Recipe] Apple Crumble


Hi, everyone!
I love fresh apples.
I usually buy a box of apples and store them in the fridge.
I eat them for breakfast and sometimes bake apple muffins, pie or apple crumble..etc.

When apples are too ripe or not fresh, I use them for baking.
One of my favourites is the apple crumble.
It is super easy to make and super fast!


 Normally, many recipes for apple crumble require canned apples but I made it myself.

How to make your own stewed apples
800g apples ( about small 7~8 apples), chopped
1/4 cup~1/2 cup brown sugar (adjustable)
Fresh lemon juice 3 table spoons
 Just under 1/4 cup water
Cinnamon(optional)

Mix all together in a saucepan and stew in medium heat.
Stir to cook even until achieving a texture you want. ( I like it crunchy.)


Apple crumble
(Serve 6~8)

1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup rolled oat
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
100g butter, chilled, chopped
1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup chopped walnut 
800 g stewed apples( recipe above)

1.Preheat oven 180'C.
2.Mix first 5 ingredients in a bowl and rub in until making bread crumbs consistency.
3.Add walnut above and mix well.
4. Place apples on an oven proof dish and scatter crumble mixture evenly over apples.
5. Bake for 20~25 minutes.
Done!

You can serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
(I love melting ice cream on warm apple crumble..Delicious!)
You can also add some berries if you have frozen berries sleeping in your freezer.^^

Have a great day!!
Thank you for visiting.


Happy baking!
