Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

250 g raspberries
250 g blackberries
250 g red currants
250 g cooking apples
60 g castor sugar
1 teaspoon of mixed spice
2 tablespoons of orange juice (optional)
250 g raspberries
250 g blackberries
250 g red currants
250 g cooking apples
60 g castor sugar
1 teaspoon of mixed spice
2 tablespoons of orange juice (optional)
80 g castor sugar
90 g butter
180 g plain flour

Steps:

  • Peel the apples. Cut them in half, cut out the cores and slice them. Cook the apples till well done but not squishy.
  • Then add the raspberries, blackberries and red currants along side the spices, sugar (and orange juice) and cook until soft.
  • Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and add the butter and cut it into small bits with a knife. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips. Keep lifting your hands high above the bowl to let air into the mixture which makes it light. Carry on doing this until you have an even, crumbly mixture,then stir in the sugar.
  • Pour the cooked fruit into a 1 liter dish and out the mixture evenly. Spoon the crumble over the fruit in the dish. Spread it out with a fork but do not press down.
  • Bake the crumble for 30-40 min until the top has browned slightly. Serve it hot with custard or cream.
