Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup (140g) all purpose plain flour
3/4 cup (75g) rolled oats
1 cup (200g) soft light brown sugar, packed
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (120g) butter, room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
2 TBS cornstarch (cornflour)
1 cup (240ml) water
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
4 cups chopped peeled apple (3 very large apples, I use Granny Smith)
vanilla ice cream or whipped cream to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350*F/180*C/ gas mark 4. Butter an 9-inch square baking dish. Set aside.
  • Make the crumbs first. Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, cutting the butter in until you have a nice crumbly mixture. Set aside.
  • To make the sauce, whisk the sugar and corn flour together in a small saucepan. Whisk in the water and vanilla. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium high heat, until the mixture comes to the boil, then reduce to low and cook at a simmer for two minutes.
  • Press half of your crumb mixture into the baking dish. Top with the apples. Pour the sauce mixture evenly over top of the apples. Sprinkle the remaining crumbs over everything evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes until the apples are tender and the crumbs are golden brown.
  • Serve warm, spooned out and topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired. Delicious!
