Thank you Margosha for sharing with us the recipe for the delicious apple crumble we all enjoyed at our charity lunch:
APPLE CRUMBLE RECIPE (Serves
6-8 persons)
For
the crumble :
140
g plain flour
Pinch
of salt
70
g sugar (brown or white)
70
g butter, cubed, at room temperature
For
the filling :
2
kg of apples (jonagold brand is ok), peeled, cored and cut in small
pieces
100
– 120 g sugar
3-4
cloves smashed
1
soup spoon of candied orange zest
60
g raisins secs
1
good pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)
Preparation
:
The
filling :
Put
the apples, cut into small pieces, into a big saucepan and let them
simmer slowly. Add progressively sugar stirring the mixture
constantly. Cook as long as it resembles a ‘compote’ with chunks
of apples in it. 10 min before the end of cooking, add all other
ingredients (clove, orange zest, raisins sec, cinnamon eventually)
and let the mixture finish its cooking. Do not forget to stir it
often as otherwise the apples will burn.
The
crumble :
Place
the flour and sugar in a large bowl and mix well. Add cubes of butter
and rub them into the flour mixture with your hand until it resembles
breadcrumbs.
Spoon
the apple mixture into a glass or any other rectangular/oval/square
container which can go into an oven which
was preheated to 180°C.
Cover the apple mixture with a thick layer of crumble and bake in
the oven until the crumble is browned which should take about 20
minutes.
Serve
with vanilla ice-cream.
Bon
appetit !
