I love me some apple crumble and I love to make it nice and quick. It’s one of my favourite desserts and I get very impatient for it. So rather than use flour, I use digestives biscuits for the crumble. A nice helping with some very hot custard would be a right treat. Hmmm….Yummy!
Here I will show you just how quick and very easy to make this delicious soulful apple crumble.
Ingredients
350g Bramley apples
100g Demerara sugar
75g Soften butter
400g Digestive biscuits
Preparation time 10 minutes Cooking time 25-30 minutes
Preheat Oven to Gas Mark 5/375F/190c
Peel and chop the apples and arrange in a clear Pyrex dish
Sprinkle the Demerara sugar evenly over the apples
Place in the oven and cook for 10 minutes
Meanwhile, in a bowl begin to crush the digestives (use a pestle or any spice jar upside down)
Add 75g of butter (room temperature)
Stir the butter into the crushed biscuits until crumble forms
Set crumble mix aside and remove cooked apple from oven
Distribute the crumble over the apples
Use a spatula to pat down the crumble
Place back in oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until toasted golden
Serve with custard
*Tips and Suggestions
- You can add 1 tsp of cinnamon to the apples before cooking in the oven
