Method

  • step 1

    Ask a grown-up to turn the oven on to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Peel the apples with a potato peeler, quarter them, cut out the cores, then chop up.

  • step 2

    Tip the apple into a bowl with the cinnamon and 1 tbsp sugar. Squeeze the juice from the halved orange and add to the bowl, too.

  • step 3

    Add the berries to the bowl and mix everything together. Tip the fruit mixture into the baking dish and pat it down.

  • step 4

    Chop three-quarters of the butter into small pieces. Put it in a bowl with the flour. Use your fingers to pinch and rub the butter into the flour.

  • step 5

    Stir the oats and the rest of the sugar into the flour mixture, then sprinkle it on top of the apple and berries in the baking dish.

  • step 6

    Dot the rest of the butter over the crumble. Ask a grown-up to put it in the oven for 40 mins or until the apple is cooked. Eat with ice cream or custard.

The butter to flour ratio is well out. Too much butter to flour. I doubled the quantities and only managed 4 servings.

Butter-flour ratio is waaaay out. Not sure who wrote this recipe? If you want enough crumble, I would increase the flour rather than reduce the butter. Also, if you can get them, I'd do half cooking apples and half eating, otherwise it's very sweet.

I found the topping to be very wet also. There's far too much butter for the dry ingredients. I added a more flour and more oats. I also doubled the mixture as my dish was big & shallow. I didnt use as much sugar as the recipe stated. It was a nice dessert but better crumble recipes out there.

Made this yesterday to use up a few apples and threw in some blueberries too. The crumble took a lot longer in the oven than specified to really crisp up - we just kept checking till it looked to our liking - and the final result was very tasty, though a little sweet for my taste. I think next time…
