Ingredients
 
 

  • FOR THE CRUMBLE:
  • 225 g Free From Fairy plain gluten-free flour blend
  • 115 g Butter - or dairy free alternative
  • 85 g Coconut sugar - I use Coconut Merchant
  • FOR THE FILLING:
  • 450 g cooking apples - peeled and cored
  • 3 tbsp mincemeat - or a handful of raisins, 1tsp mixed spice and sugar to taste - optional

Instructions
 

  • Make the crumble by placing all the ingredients into a food processor. Alternatively, rub the butter into the flour until they resemble breadcrumbs then add the sugar.
  • Spread the mixture onto a lined baking tray and cook under a grill on high heat for around 7 minutes, stirring every minute.
  • Alternatively cook at 180 degrees C (160 degree fan) for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir and replace for a further 5 minutes until golden and crisp
  • While the crumble is cooking peel, core and cut the apples into chunks and cook in a saucepan on a low heat with around 1 cup of water
  • Stir regularly and add more water if needed
  • Cook until the apple is smooth with no lumps then add the mincemeat, spices or dried fruit if using and taste for sweetness. Add sugar if you think it's necessary
  • Finally, place the apple mixture into a deep dish (around 24cm diameter) and scatter over the crumble topping
  • Alternatively keep the crumble mixture in an airtight container for up to a week at room temperature (or freeze for a longer life) and the apple mixture in the fridge for up to a week (or freeze for a longer life)
