Apple and Pear Crumble Recipe
I'm a big fan of a delicious crumble! Whether it's rhubarb, apple, or any other fruity variety, this Apple and Pear Crumble Recipe is definitely a standout. Once you nail the ideal crumble-to-fruit ratio, everyone will appreciate your unique twist on this simple yet crowd-pleasing dish.
Apples and pears make a fantastic pair, adding a unique flavor to desserts, fruit salads, and even juices. They're not only tasty but also economical and nutritious. However, they both appear on the dirty dozen list, so it's advisable to purchase organic or from sources known for reduced pesticide use. Check out the complete list here.
The crumble consists of two layers. The bottom layer is made of fruit, while the top layer is the crumble spread over it. Let's begin!
Ingredients
Base
around 800-1000 g (1 kg) apple and pear. I used half and half
1/3 cup sugar
Juice of 1 large lemon, 3-4 tbsp
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla essence
Crumble topping
130 g vegan butter
130 g white flour (use oat flour for gluten free version)
130 g oat flakes
Instructions
Set the oven to 180 degrees with the fan forced setting.
Rinse apples and pears. Peeling isn't necessary if they are organic.
Core and cut into large chunks. Add all Base ingredients to a pan. Heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the crumble by melting the butter and thoroughly combining all the crumble ingredients.
Once base is ready, pour it in to a (glass) baking dish, spread it out evenly. The spoon crumble on top, spreading that gently so everything is covered evenly.
Bake in oven for 30 minutes, until top is golden.
Pair it with your favorite cream, ice cream, or custard! Enjoy!
