Cooking method

Oven

  1. Prepare the apples

    Heat the oven to 180 C. Peel or scrub the apples, then slice them and place them in a baking dish.

  2. Season the fruit

    Toss the apples with cinnamon and a little of the sugar.

  3. Make the crumble

    Rub wheat flour, butter or dairy-free margarine, remaining sugar and salt together until crumbly.

  4. Top

    Scatter the crumble topping evenly over the apples.

  5. Bake

    Bake until the topping is golden and the apples are soft and bubbling at the edges.

  6. Rest

    Rest briefly before serving so the filling is easier to spoon.

Frequently asked questions

Does apple crumble contain gluten?

Yes. Both current versions use wheat flour, so there is no gluten-free compatible version yet.

Which version should I choose if I avoid lactose or milk protein?

Choose the vegan version. It uses dairy-free margarine instead of butter.

Does this crumble use egg?

No. Neither listed version uses egg, so egg is not shown as a visible restriction.

Can I make it ahead?

You can bake it ahead and warm it gently before serving. The topping is crispest soon after baking.
