Apple Crumble

Anybody can bake this delicious seasonal recipe. I would normally bake this at this time of year as my neighbour offers me her windfall apples from her trees in her garden and I often use the blackberries from the bushes around our village in Cloonrane that I collect when walking with the kids. This year however blackberries weren’t so plentiful and apples were. The ones I used were left into Milltown community centre.

INGREDIENTS:

6 medium size apples

2oz/50g caster sugar

3 dessert spoons of water

TOPPING

6oz/180g flour

2oz/50g butter

2oz/50g caster sugar

METHOD:

• Pre heat oven at 180◦c/gas mark 4.
• Put sliced apples in a saucepan with the water and sugar and cook until soft, then place in cake tin.
• Rub flour butter and sugar together until the resemble breadcrumbs.
• Cover the fruit with the mixture.
• Bake for 30 mins.

 

Eat with a healthy dollop of cream or custard and enjoy!
