About Apple crumble
Apple crumble is a baked dessert of fruit beneath a streusel-like topping. Nagi Maehashi's version uses Granny Smith apples with white sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon under an oat, flour, brown-sugar and butter crumble.
The filling is sweet-tart and warmly spiced, while brown sugar and butter give the topping a caramel-like richness. Lemon keeps the apple flavour bright.
The apples soften into a syrupy filling while keeping distinct pieces. The surface bakes crisp and craggy, contrasting with the tender fruit; vanilla ice cream is an optional serving accompaniment.
