Apple Crumble is one of my favourite desserts. It’s such a comfort on cold evenings and really easy to make.
I’m not a huge fan of apples but cook them in syrup and top them with a crisp and sweet crumb and I’m on board! Apple Crumble warms my heart as well as my tummy and every time I serve it, my family feels warm and cosy too. It’s such a lovely way to round off a meal and bring everyone together which, I believe, is what family meals are all about.
This recipe is pretty easy. You stew the apples, then blitz the crumble ingredients together in a food processor, then assemble it all in a baking dish. Pop it in the oven and you’re done.
Here’s how I do it.
