How to make apple crumble

Follow this 7-step easy apple crumble recipe and get ready to feel that delicious, warming feeling inside!

Step 1

Create the crumble by combining the flour, butter and salt. Use a mixer to get coarse ‘breadcrumbs’ (you can also get stuck in by massaging it with your fingertips).

Step 2

Mix in the Demerara and Golden Caster Sugar. Sprinkle over the water and stir through until you have a satisfyingly lumpy mixture.

Step 3

Chill in the fridge - this will give the crumble that lovely 'craggy' topping.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180° Fan, 400°F, Gas 6. While it’s warming, layer the apples into a 1.6l (2¾pt) shallow baking dish. Sprinkle the cinnamon and drizzle the Lyle's Golden Syrup over the top, then toss everything together to evenly coat. Add the water.

Step 5

Spoon your craggy topping lightly over the apples (don't smooth it down though; that crumbly texture is what you want).

Pro tip

Try sprinkling a handful of blackberries atop your apple crumble for a delicious and welcome berry burst

Step 6

Pop it on the middle shelf for 45-50 minutes - you'll know it's ready when the apples are tender (poke with a small fine skewer) and the topping is golden and bubbling.

Pro tip

Serve up your and serve with custard, cream, a scoop of ice cream, or even a dollop of tasty Greek-style yoghurt.

Step 7

Remove and allow to cool a little before serving.
