Ingredients
150 g (1 cup) Plain flour
100 g (1/2 cup, firmly packed) Brown sugar
50 g (1/2 cup) Rolled oats
100 g Chilled butter, chopped
60 g (1/2 cup) Chopped walnuts
1 x 800 g Can pie apple
Icing sugar, for dusting
Vanilla ice cream, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a large bowl, combine plain flour, brown sugar, and rolled oats. Add the chopped butter and rub it into the dry ingredients with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Spoon the pie apple into a 1.5 L (6-cup) ovenproof dish and spread evenly.
- Scatter the crumble mixture evenly over the apples, pressing it down lightly.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp.
- Allow to cool slightly, then dust with icing sugar and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Add cinnamon or nutmeg to the crumble for a warm, spiced flavor.
Use fresh apples instead of canned—just cook them briefly with sugar and lemon juice first.
Replace walnuts with almonds or pecans, or omit them for a nut-free version.
Mix in berries, pears, or peaches for a fruity variation.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
