What is the crumble on apple crumble made of?
In this recipe we use rolled oats and brown sugar with a little flour and cold butter. Crumbled evenly over the apple slices for a topping. Baked until golden.
Should you cook apples before making a crumble?
No, the apples do not need to be cooked before making a apple pie or tart. Just slice when you ready to mix them with the flour and brown sugar before they brown. Other wise mix them with some lemon juice to prevent browning. The apples will cook well in the pie as with this recipe they are slice thinly.
What apple is best for baking crumble?
Mostly granny smith green apples are used for their tartness. But you can mix them with some sweet red apples for balance. This recipe uses the mixed apples. Or just use the granny smith apples.
What happens if you put too much butter in crumble?
To much butter will make a greasy mixture and it will not be crumbly on top. Adding to little butter to the oats will make the topping dry and floury. Which will not be nice either. So add either more flour and oats if to much butter is used.

Cold butter cut into pieces for the streusel topping with the oats. Melted butter for the biscuit base.
How To
Preheat the oven first and grease the baking pie dish or casserole dish.
Make the shortbread crust recipe if you prefer to. But my go to is always the biscuit base with butter and brown sugar. So easy and quick to make. Crush the biscuits finely in a bowl and add the melted butter and sugar. Mix this altogether in a bowl then spread and press evenly in the dish. Bake for ten minutes then remove.
Slice the apples thinly, I used a mix of granny smith and some sweet red gala apples. Mix these slices in a bowl with cinnamon, brown sugar and flour well. The flour will combine the ingredients when it is baked. Spread these apple slices evenly over the crust of the dish.

Mix the streusel of rolled oats, flour, brown sugar and cold butter pieces by hand well until well combined as a dough. Break up and sprinkle the streusel over the apple filling evenly. So all the apples are covered with the oat mixture.
Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, until the oat topping is golden. Then cover the dish with foil so not to burn the streusel oat topping further. Bake for a further 40-50 minutes until the apples inside are cooked and soft.
