Ingredients
  

  • 5 oz 1.5kg apples, like Bramley or Granny Smith to get the right acidity and texture.
  • ½ lemon juice only
  • ½ cup 100g light muscovado sugar
  • 6 tablespoons water

For the topping crumble mix

  • tablespoons 50g plain flour
  • 1/3 cup 50g porridge oats
  • 3/4 cup 150g light muscovado sugar
  • oz 150g walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup 50g sunflower seeds
  • oz 100g unsalted butter, softened

Instructions
 

  • Oven. Preheat the oven to 180C.
  • Cook the apples. Peel and cut the apples into thin slices. Place lemon juice, sugar, and six tablespoons of water in a small casserole. Bring to a boil, then place in the oven for around 20 minutes until the apple is tender but not too much to become pulp!
  • Dry ingredients. Add the dry topping ingredients to a mixing bowl.
  • Mix butter. Rub the butter into the dry ingredients until it is thoroughly blended forming a perfect crumble topping.
  • Bake. Spread the mixture evenly over a baking tray. Bake until golden brown and crisp.
  • Serve. Take out from the oven after around 20 minutes. Gently break up the crumble and sprinkle it over the hot apple.
