Ingredients
-
400g sweet apples, peeled and diced
-
300g strawberries, diced
-
3 tbsp Black Garlic Balsamic Vinegar with Goji Berries
-
50g self-raising flour
-
80g oats
-
60g sugar or coconut sugar
-
60g butter
-
6 serves vanilla ice cream
Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Boil apple pieces until tender. In the meantime, soak strawberries in balsamic vinegar.
Drain apples and tip into a medium ceramic oven-proof dish, then add strawberries. Mix and spread the fruit out flat.
In a bowl, mix flour, oats and sugar. Add the butter and squeeze it through the flour mixture with your hands to form small clumps, which will make the crumble.
Tip the crumble mixture on top of the fruit and spread evenly. Cook on the middle shelf of the oven for about 18-20 minutes; check often to ensure the crumble is not burning.
- Remove from the oven when golden and crunchy. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
Recipe Note
- Using coconut sugar will make the crumble darker and chewier. Using normal sugar will make the crumble crunchier and lighter.
- Add more butter or a few teaspoons of water to dampen the mixture to make more clumps if it feels too dry whilst making the crumble.
