apple crumble

if you've got a pile of apples but not enough time to bake a pie, or if u're short of flour, sugar or fat (like butter), then this recipe is just for you, even you have never tried cooking it before...!!!this dessert is one of my favorite even it will take less time and ingredients to prepare than an apple pie, but the taste is just as delicious and comforting..

so let's try this out!!!

ingredients:

• 6 green apples (they must be green)
• 250g of sugar
• 150g of butter
• 1 clove or cinnamon stick (opt)
• cream or vanilla cream

methods:

• preheat the oven and set the temperature for about 150 degrees celcius.
• peel and core the apples nicely and roughly dice them into chunks.
• put the apple chunks into a pan and then add three quarters of the sugar and the cinnamon stick or clove to saute the apples. if you have enough butter, add in.
• allow to saute gently for half an hour, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon and keep checking as they can easily burn at the beginning.
• check that the fruit is cooked by mashing it a bit with a wooden spoon, the apples should be soft but not pureed.
• allow them to cool for a while in a serving dish.
• in a separate bowl, mix the flour, remaining sugar and butter and blend them until it takes on a breadcrumb consistency.
• cover the saute apples with the crumble topping WITHOUT pressing down.
• bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the crumble is golden brown and crunchy.
• allow it to cool before serving the apple crumble with cream or ice cream.

this crumble can be a cozy comfort on a chilly night or part of fancy celebration meals.
