Four Crumble Toppings

Blackberry and Apple Crumble

Apples are available all year round and at very good prices in the shops. But, out of season, blackberries cost a fortune, around £1.80 for 150g. We suggest you pick them when they are in season and then freeze them for later use.
The combination of sweet dark blackberries and tart green apples makes a perfect blackberry and apple crumble with very little extra sugar needed.

HOW MANY SERVINGS Four good servings

TIME TO PREPARE None (blackberries may need to be defrosted)

COOKING TIME 40 minutes

WILL IT FREEZE? Yes, this recipe freezes well.

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the cooking margarine, sugar and flour into a large bowl and blend them together with your fingers. This will take from three to five minutes. It's also fine to mix the crumble with a fork or food blender.
Add the chopped almonds to the crumble mixture and mix well with your fingers.

2. If you are using large blackberries, chop them up a bit. Layer the bottom of the oven proof dish with apples, then the blackberries and then another layer of apples. Sprinkle the sugar over the top. Now spread the crumble mixture over the top of the fruit.
Place in the pre-heated oven and cook for 40 minutes. Serve warm with lots of double cream or ice cream

If any of your apple and blackberry crumble is left over then put it in the fridge and eat it for breakfast the next day. Absolutely heavenly!
