Prep time: 45 minServes: 6

Pairs with

Apple's acidity and cinnamon's warmth meet a dessert wine with apple-like notes — or an off-dry riesling that mirrors the fruit's character.

Ingredients

  • Filling: 6 apples (Cox/Granny Smith), peeled and sliced, 100g sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, juice of 1 lemon
  • Crumble: 150g plain flour, 100g rolled oats, 100g muscovado sugar, 100g cold butter diced, 1 pinch salt
  • Vanilla ice cream or custard

Method

  1. 11. Toss the apples with sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice. Pour into a baking dish.
  2. 22. Mix flour, oats, sugar and salt. Rub in the cold butter with your fingers until it looks like coarse crumbs.
  3. 33. Scatter the crumble evenly over the apples.
  4. 44. Bake at 180°C for 35–40 minutes until golden and bubbling.
  5. 55. Serve with vanilla ice cream or custard.
