Apple and Mixed Berry Crumble

Over the years I've searched and we have tried various crumble recipes. The recipe listed below is a combination of a few recipes. I've added cinnamon and ginger for extra flavour. This is my favourite crumble recipe! I hope you like it too.

Each time I make this dessert I use different fruits. 

Including fresh, frozen or tinned fruit.

This time we enjoyed Apple and Mixed Berry Crumble.

I used frozen mixed berries and let them thaw. 

Apple Crumble recipe

6 large granny smith apples - peeled, cored, sliced  (see note)

1 cup raw sugar

1 cup desiccated coconut

1 cup SR flour

1 cup rolled oats

2tsp ground cinnamon

2tsp ground ginger

50g softened butter (not melted)

Preheat oven 180 oC

Cook apples in a saucepan with a splash of water and simmer on stove until just cooked. Place cooked apples into a large baking dish. If using mixed berries or tinned fruit there is no need to cook on the stove.

Mix sugar, coconut, SR flour, rolled oats, cinnamon and ginger in a bowl, including the butter. Crumble butter with fingertips to form coarse crumbs. Spoon crumble mixture over the fruit.

Bake in oven for approximately 20 minutes (check after 15 minutes to make sure top does not burn).

Serve with ice cream or custard

* Note – any fruit can be used. Mixed berries, peach, pear, etc

* SR flour – self raising flour

A yummy dessert to warm your tummy during the cooler months of the year. 

Great way to start the day with a warm breakfast.
