Ingredients

225g plain flour

2 level tsp ground cinnamon

140g chilled butter, cut into 2cm pieces

100g Demerara sugar

15g caster sugar

8 Cox apples, each peeled, cored and cut into 8 wedges

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Sift the flour and cinnamon into a bowl. Rub in 125g of the butter until it resembles breadcrumbs (or use a food processor). Stir in the Demerara sugar.

Melt the remaining butter and the caster sugar in a large pan, then add the apples. Cook over a gentle heat, tossing now and then, until they begin to soften. Pour into an ovenproof dish, about 23cm x 18cm.

Sprinkle the crumble over the fruit, put the dish on a baking tray and cook for 30-35 mins.
