Apple, Blackberry and Strawberry Crumble

Ingredients

• 1 large cooking apple – peeled and cut into chunks
• 150g fresh British blackberries
• 120g fresh British strawberries – quartered
• 3 tbsp caster sugar
• Juice from ½ a lemon
For the topping:
• 100g butter
• 100g demerera sugar
• 130g plain flour
• 90g rolled oats
• 2 tsp nutmeg

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius/gas mark 7/425 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Prepare the apple by peeling, coring and cutting it into bite-size chunks.
3. Add the apples, strawberries and blackberries into an oven-proof dish and sprinkle over the caster sugar and lemon juice.
4. In a separate mixing bowl, add the butter, demerera sugar and flour. Rub the ingredients together until they make a coarse mixture (don’t worry about making it too even). Then stir in the rolled oats and nutmeg.
5. Sprinkle the topping over your fruit until it is all covered. Be sure not to pile it on too thick, or it will not cook right through.
6. Put your crumble into the oven and leave to cook for 25-30 minutes, or until it is a crisp golden-brown on top.
