Aromatic Apple Filling

Apples are certainly the essential components. You can make use of cooking apples (or apples for cooking), however truthfully, any type will work as long as you are fine with either a mushier or chunkier apple filling. Additionally, if you select tangy apple, you may need to add more sugar to balance the tangy flavor. However when I add sweet apples, I occasionally entirely leave out the sugar in the apple mixture.

Nevertheless, cinnamon for me is a needed element in the apple part of the crumble. One tsp ground cinnamon makes sure the pudding (along with your whole home!) will smell beautiful. You can also add some cloves to your apple dessert for some extra taste.

Crumb Topping Components

The crumble topping calls for only three simple ingredients: sugar, flour and also butter. But absolutely nothing is preventing you from being innovative or even daring with them. So you might use any kind of sugar you enjoy or currently have at kitchen, consisting of brown sugar, coconut sugar or granulated sugar.

Various recipes require fat ingredients in different forms. So you could make use of either cold butter or melted butter. Although I like a flavorful, buttery crumble, when I make it for people on a plant-based diet, I exchange butter with coconut oil. The texture will be a bit different but the crumb topping will be still scrumptious.

When it comes to the second from the dry ingredients - flour, there are additionally various alternatives. In the Apple Crumble recipe below, in addition to all-purpose flour, I also add almond meal (this is my secret ingredient!). However you can also include some oats or other ground or sliced nuts. Alternatively, if you are on a gluten-free diet regimen, use a gluten-free flour mix instead of ordinary flour.

Delicious Crumb Topping

My love for crumbles goes back to my childhood years. My Grandmother frequently baked yeast cakes with seasonal fruit and also crumble on top. And I used to steal the biggest pieces of crumble when the cake came out from the stove. I have to confess that I additionally used to do it even before the cake was baked! And also "the biggest piece of crumble" is a key expression here. When I prepare my crumbly combination, I make sure I have coarse crumbs. So if after preparing it, I don't find myself with the wanted sizing, I just manually stick together smaller sized pieces of the crumb combination.

Ways to Serve Apple Crumble

Having Apple Crumble with no extras is already a fantastic experience. Nonetheless, if you do not count calories, have it with fresh cream (heavy is the best ;)), custard or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Whichever method of serving you choose, I am sure this scrumptious crumble will please your sweet tooth. I hope you are going to include it to your favored dishes :)
