Apple Crumble
6 cooking apples
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup plain flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup soft brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
75 grams butter
First, stew the apples a little to make sure that they will be properly soft. Peel and core them, chop them up and place in a pot with the first measure of sugar and cinnamon, and a little water. Place a lid on the pot and let the water come to a boil until the apples are mushy.
Prepare the crumble by placing the flour, oats, brown sugar and cinnamon in a food processor and chopping them together until the oats are fine. Then soften the butter in the microwave until it is half melted and add this to the dry ingredients, giving it another whiz in the processor. What you should have after that is a moist, crumbly mixture that sort of holds itself together when you press it into a ball - if it seems too dry add a bit more butter.
Place the apples in a large oven dish and crumble the oat mixture over the top. If you are like me and need some chocolate, sprinkle chocolate chips over the top. Then bake at about 180 degrees celsius for 20 minutes or so, until the crumble is cooked and crunchy.
