Not Too Tricky
serves 8
Ingredients
1.5kg mixed apples (I like to use half Bramley)
200g golden caster sugar
1 lemon
100g unsalted vegan butter (cold)
100g plain flour
100g ground almonds
a good pinch of ground cinnamon
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.
- Peel and core the apples, then quarter and chop into 3cm chunks.
- Place in a saucepan on a medium heat with 100g of the sugar and a few fine gratings of lemon zest.
- Pop the lid on and cook for 5 minutes, or until the apples have softened. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
- Meanwhile, cube the vegan butter and place in a mixing bowl with the flour. Rub together with your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs, then scrunch in the ground almonds, cinnamon and remaining 100g of sugar to add a little texture.
- Transfer the apples to a 25cm x 30cm baking dish and sprinkle over the crumble topping.
- Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden and bubbling. Delicious served with your favourite plant-based vanilla custard, cream or ice cream.
