Making apple crumble is quite straightforward and such an easy
alternative, especially if making the pie crust is already considered
complicated for you. It is a perfect dessert even if you do not have
flour, sugar, butter or lard in your kitchen.
To make apple crumble good for four to five people, you’ll need five
medium sized apples. You can leave the peel on or pare them. Cut each
apple into four equal parts and cut the core to make sure all seeds are
not included. Next cut the apple quarters into six slices. Thinly
slicing the apples is not a good idea. Then, prepare, two tablespoons of
brown sugar, one teaspoon cinnamon and two tablespoons of raisin for
added texture. These ingredients will be the filling for your apple
crumble recipe.
For the topping, prepare one cup of self-raising flour, half cup of
brown sugar, one cup raw oats, half a cup of melted butter.
Before preparing and mixing the ingredients for your apple
 crumble
recipe, first preheat your oven to 180°C or 350°F. In a medium sized
bowl mix thoroughly all ingredients for the apply crumble filling namely
apples, brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins. Some people opt to use an
electric mixer or fork to mix the ingredients. However, mixing all of
the ingredients by hand seems to be the best method amongst all.
On a separate mixing bowl mix the ingredients for the topping until
it all dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed and it reaches a moist but
not very soft consistency. You can use a fork to mix the ingredients.

the ingredients mixed well.
Next, evenly spread the apple crumble filling in a baking pan or
dish. You do not need to grease the pan since the apple’s natural juice
will already grease the pan later on. After this, you then spread the
apple crumble topping evenly in your ovenproof dish.
Put the dish in the middle of your preheated oven and bake the apple
crumble in the oven for less than an hour or until you notice the
topping turn to golden brown. For a more palatable look, you can put the
apple crumble under a hot grill for half a minute to create a golden
brown topping.
After this, let this sumptuous dessert cool off for 15 to 20 minutes
before serving. You can serve it plainly or you can dish up apple
crumble with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream or
custard.
