Prep Time 25 minutes mins
Cook Time 35 minutes mins
Total Time 1 minute min
- 4 medium cooking apples (Bramley or Granny Smith) 1 lb 6oz/730 g
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ cup granulated sugar 4 oz/115 g, divided
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour 6 oz/170 g (plain flour)
- ½ cup butter 3 oz/85 g, cold and cubed
Peel, core, and chop the apples into 2 cm chunks.
Put the apples into an 8 x 8-inch ovenproof dish. Toss in some lemon juice to stop it from going brown. Stir in ¼ cup (2 oz/58 g) of sugar.
Place the flour and the remaining ¼ cup (2 oz/58 g) sugar in a mixing bowl. Add the cold butter and use your hands (or a pastry blender) to rub in the butter until the mixture resembles large breadcrumbs.
Pour this evenly on top of the apples.
Bake the crumble at 350°F (180°C) for 35-45 minutes or until nicely browned on top and the apples are bubbling.
Enjoy hot with whipped cream or vanilla ice-cream.
