Apple and Orange Crumble recipe
information
The beauty of crumbles is that they are very easy to make, and good-tempered enough to have their cooking time and temperature adjusted a little to fit in with the rest of the menu. The only thing to make sure of is that the top is nicely golden, but not too brown. The recipe here uses apple and orange but any type of fruit can be used.
ingredients
700 g (1 1/2 lb) cooking apples, peeled, cored and sliced
grated rind and juice of 1 orange
25 g (1 oz) light soft brown sugar

1. Put the apples, orange rind and juice and sugar into a 1.4 litre (2 1/2 pint) ovenproof serving dish.
