Aromatic Apple Filling

Apples are clearly the key elements. You can make use of cooking apples (or apples for cooking), but actually, any kind will certainly do the job as long as you are OK with either a mushier or chunkier apple filling. Additionally, if you pick tangy apple, you may need to add even more sugar to stabilize the slightly sour flavor. However when I add sweet apples, I in some cases completely leave out the sugar in the apple combination.

Nevertheless, cinnamon for me is a needed element in the apple part of the crumble. One tsp ground cinnamon ensures the pudding (along with your whole house!) will scent lovely. You can additionally include some cloves to your apple treat for some extra flavor.

Crumb Topping Ingredients

The crumble topping calls for only 3 simple ingredients: sugar, flour and also butter. But nothing is preventing you from being innovative and even adventures with them. So you can make use of any kind of sugar you like or currently have at kitchen, consisting of brown sugar, coconut sugar or granulated sugar.

Various dishes require fat ingredients in different types. So you can make use of either chilled butter or melted butter. Although I enjoy a rich, buttery crumble, when I make it for vegans, I exchange butter with coconut oil. The texture will be a bit different yet the crumb topping will be still scrumptious.

When it concerns the 2nd from the dry ingredients - flour, there are also various alternatives. In the Apple Crumble dish listed below, apart from all-purpose flour, I additionally use almond meal (this is my secret ingredient!). Yet you can additionally include some oats or various other ground or cut nuts. Additionally, if you prefer a gluten-free diet, make use of a gluten-free flour mixture in place of regular flour.

Delicious Crumb Topping

My love for crumbles dates back to my youth. My Grandmother often baked yeast cakes with seasonal fruit and also crumble on top. And I used to take the chunkiest pieces of crumble when the cake was taken out from the stove. I need to confess that I additionally used to do it even before the cake was baked! As well as "the chunkiest piece of crumble" is a vital expression here. When I prepare my crumbly mixture, I make sure I have coarse crumbs. So if after processing, I do not find myself with the wanted sizing, I simply by hand stick together smaller pieces of the crumb mix.

How to Serve Apple Crumble

Having Apple Crumble with no additions is already a terrific experience. Nevertheless, if you don't have to worry about calories, enjoy it with fresh cream (heavy is the best ;)), custard or a portion of vanilla ice cream. Whichever method of serving you choose, I am sure this delicious crumble will please your craving for sweets. And I hope you are going to add it to your favored recipes :)
