Blackberry Apple Crumble Recipe

One of the best fruit combos – all we did was add a crunchy nut topping. A great finish to your Sunday roast

Serves

Prep time

10 minutes

Cooking time

30-40 minutes

Ingredients

4 apples

300g fresh blackberries

90g ground almonds

100g coconut flakes

2 tbsp butter

1 tbsp raw honey or 2 tsp coconut sugar (optional)

1 tbsp cinnamon

90g chopped walnuts

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

2. Slice the apples and remove the cores. Layer the apples and blackberries in a loaf tin.

3. Place the ground almonds and coconut in a bowl with the butter, honey and cinnamon.

4. Using your hands, rub the fat into the ground almonds and coconut until the mixture has the consistency of breadcrumbs. Add the chopped walnuts and stir together with a spoon.

5. Place the crumble mixture on top of the fruit. There should be a 1cm layer. If there are any gaps, simply sprinkle with some extra desiccated coconut.

6. Bake for 30-40 minutes until the crumble topping is golden brown and the fruit is soft.
