Apple Crumble

I like to make this for afternoon snack for the kids. They love it with vanilla ice-cream. This recipe has a good balance of apple and crumble. Simple and delicious !

Recipe adapted from Jaime Oliver's Apple Crumble  Recipe 

Ingredients (serves 2-3) 

Apple filling

4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into chunks

40g sugar

1 tablespoon of water

Zest of half a lemon

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder

Crumble

50g rolled oats

35g wholemeal flour

20g brown sugar 

35g unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes

2 tablespoon of brown flaxseed meal (optional)

Topping 

Vanilla Ice-cream

Method 

1.  Preheat oven to 190 degree celsius.

2. Put the apple, sugar, water, cinnamon powder and lemon zest into a pan and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally. 

3. While the apple is cooking, prepare the crumble. Add rolled oats, flour, brown sugar and flaxseed meal into a mixing bowl. Add butter and use your fingers to rub until the mixture is crumbly. 

4. Transfer the apples, including the liquid if any into a shallow baking dish. Top with the crumble mixture and bake for about 20 minutes till golden brown and the apples are cooked. 

5. Serve warm with or without vanilla ice-cream . Sometimes , i will have it with a dollop of greek yoghurt instead of ice-cream.
