love crunch granola apple topped apple pie

This recipe features in my debut cookbook Dinner. Don’t forget the ice cream!!! 😇 – Nagi x It’s just a little bit of heaven, right there. The cinnamon, the apple, the buttery sweet goodness.Īnd that moment when you crack through the nubbly golden topping and are greeted with the sight of golden syrupy, tender apples… Blend together flour, butter, shortening, and salt in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse in a food processor) just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some. The smell when this is in the oven is just heavenly. This recipe will also work for pears and even stone fruits like peaches. If you prefer not to have tartness, then feel free to use sweet red apples. I like to use Granny Smith apples because the sweet-tart palette appeals to me. It crumbles when you serve it – hence the name 😉 – but it doesn’t disintegrate, there are chunks that hold together. Bake the oat crumble topping at 360☏ for 17-20 minutes total (if you’re using regular flour) and 8-12 minutes more if you’re using gluten free flour (it usually browns slower). Line the dish with the pastry, then trim and crimp. Transfer the mixture to a baking tray or cookie sheet, use your fingers to sprinkle evenly. Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface until it’s large enough to line a 20-22cm pie dish. Peel, core quarter and slice the apples, then tip into a bowl with the sugar, mixed spice and flour. The crumbly topping bakes up beautifully crisp but is not dry or doughy or overly sweet. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 with a baking tray inside. Just a bit of flour really makes a difference andĢ. It is made ever so slightly jammy / syrupy with the addition of flour mixed with the usual sugar (plus cinnamon for fragrance). The next time you see Love Crunch or Nature’s Path products at your local grocery store, pick some up. If you have never tried Love Crunch, you need to pick up a bag or two. But it works, tastes great and it makes an Apple Crumble that is everything it should be. This delicious apple pie with oatmeal granola crumble topping is a big slice of fall. Tip: Prepare and refrigerate up to 2 days before baking pies. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This recipe doesn’t have any ground breaking techniques or secret ingredients. In a small bowl, combine flour and sugar. There are tons and tons of Apple Crumble recipes out there. That was the moment when I decided I needed to create my own recipe. This is The Apple Crumble recipe I’ve been making for years and years. Ever since my sister made an Apple Crumble by a well known celebrity chef for my birthday dinner (yes I’m weird, I seriously requested Apple Crumble instead of a birthday cake) and it was terribly disappointing.Ĭrumbly topping to be sure, but it was awfully dry and the filling was watery. This is a reader favourite included by popular demand in my debut cookbook “Dinner”! THE Apple Crumble recipe With a warm, cinnamon laced apple filling and a perfectly crunchy, crumbly topping, Apple Crumble is an absolute crowd pleaser! Very easy to make, this Apple Crumble recipe is a keeper that you’ll make again and again.
