Notes
- Use a good quality unsalted butter and make sure it is cut into small cubes and very cold before mixing it with sugar and flour.
- Toast the walnuts lightly in the oven before adding them to your crumble. Toast them in the preheated oven to 150°C (fan oven) for 15 to 20 minutes.
- You can make the crumble topping and keep it in the freezer for up to 3 months. Simply pull it out when you need it and use it from frozen.
- Use different berries for this crumble recipe such as raspberries, blackberries, or gooseberries, depending on what's in season.
- Peel your apples using a peeler and core with a help of an apple corer before slicing or cutting them into chunks.
