APPLE & BLACKBERRY CRUMBLE
from Manner | Issue 9
Yes, it's a classic... Yes, you probably know how to make it... but with our addition of smoked sugar on the topping, you can bring a hint of campfire to your crumble.
Ingredients

300g Apples
(200g when peeled and prepped)
100g Blackberries
50g sugar
For the crumble
200g plain flour
100g butter
50g caster sugar
For the topping
Smoked, or brown sugar
Method
• Preheat the oven to 180C
• Peel and chop apples so that you have approximately 200g of fruit once prepared and spread into a medium oven proof dish (these quantities work well in a 25cm-30cm dish).
• Add 100g of blackberries (well soaked and washed if foraged) and add to the apples.
• Sprinkle up to 50g of sugar on the fruit according to taste
• Rub the flour and butter together to form a breadcrumb like consistency, add the caster sugar, and loosely combine
• Cover the fruit with the crumble topping leaving it quite loose rather than pressing it down
• Add a sprinkle of smoked or brown sugar for a caramelised topping. (Smoked sugar available in Jersey via www.gifts.je)
• Cook for around 25-40 minutes or until brown with the fruit mix bubbling at the sides
• Serve hot with custard, cream or vanilla ice-cream (it's also delicious the next day cold... if there's any left that is!)
