Instructions
- Combine all the crumble ingredients an a large bowl. Lightly rub the butter through your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Set aside.Tip: if making double quantities of crumble, freeze the other half for an extra speedy dessert next time.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/400°F/Gas 6.
- Peel, core and chop up the apples roughly into chunks. Melt the butter in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Toss in the apple chunks with the vanilla and sprinkle over the sugar. Fry briefly, turning the apples in the butter and sugar for about 5 minutes. The apples should not be mushy, just cooked and lightly caramelised.
- Transfer to the gratin or pudding dish (no need to butter it) and sprinkle on a generous amount of crumble until the apples are completely covered.
- Bake for about 35 minutes, or until the top is toasted and lightly browned.
Notes
- Serve warm or at room temperature - either on its own, with vanilla ice cream, custard or salted caramel sauce. For the adults, accompany with a Calvados/Drambuie ice cream. Also delicious with chestnut vanilla ice cream.
