Mmmm......just love blackberry and apple crumble. Our discovery apples have ripened and the blackberries in the lane are ready, so here's a recipe I found in the colour supplement this weekend. There's too much sugar for my taste and I also adjusted the amount of blackberries......but this is a nice recipe.
750g Blackerries
750g Discovery Apples
4tbsp Sugar
1 tbsp Butter
For the Crumble
120g Butter
180g Plain white flour
60g Medium oatmeal
120g sugar
Place fruit, sugar and two tablespoons water in a pan over a medium heat and cook until the apples just soften. Remove from the heat and put in a shallow ovenproof dish. Preheat the oven to 200C, gas 6. Rub the crumble ingredients together with your hands to make a mixture the texture of breadcrumbs and use it to cover the fruit. Bake for about 30 minutes until the crumble is golden. I like custard with mine, but cream is yummy too.
