Fruit Crumble

Hello reader, This week on Thursday we made a fruit crumble for home economics. In my group, the ingredients that my group had to use were flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, butter and we also had some apples that are already for the class. But you can have anything that you like in your fruit crumble. My opinion on fruit crumble was that I loved it and I would make it again. Here's the recipe if you would like to make it yourself. 

Fruit Crumble                             Serves  4   

½ c Flour                                                           

½ t Cinnamon                                              

½ c Brown Sugar (not packed)

65 g cold Butter (cut into small cubes)                                                                           

½ c Rolled Oats (Wholegrain oats)

1 – 2 medium-sized Apples (cooking apples eg Granny Smith work well)

1 D White Sugar                                

1 T Water

Method    

     * Preheat oven to Fan Bake 180°C).

  1. Put flour, cinnamon and brown sugar into a medium bowl.

  2. Rub butter lightly into the flour mixture.

  3. Add rolled oats and mix with a fork.

  4. Peel and quarter the apples. Cut the core out and slice each quarter into thin slices.

  5. Place into a greased pie dish.

  6. Sprinkle with white sugar and water.

  7. Spoon this mixture evenly over the apples to cover them.

  8. Bake on Fan bake for 10 -15 min or until the edge is going brown.


Remember to prepare the crumble topping first before preparing the apples. 

Work quickly to lightly rub in butter so the mixture stays as cool as possible.

Place prepared apples in cold lightly salted water to stop them from going brown. Drain well before putting the apple into the pie dish.

You can use other fruit: pears, fresh or frozen berries, peaches, cooked rhubarb etc.

Cooking times can sometimes vary from 15 -20+ minutes.

Allow the cooked Apple Crumble to sit for about 5-10 minutes before serving.

Serve with custard, yoghurt or ice cream. 

The uncooked crumble topping freezes well in a bag for later use.

Remember you can use stewed, tinned or frozen fruits.
