Butterscotch Blackberry & Apple Crumble (Gluten-Free)

October 18, 2021

This Blackberry & Apple Crumble is a perfect balance of sweet and tartness - it's also gluten-free

We use Nature's Charm Butterscotch sauce to the crumble for extra depth of flavour, but you can add anything you like to the crumble with the same consistency: Biscoff, Caramel, Nut Butter, etc.

Ingredients

FOR THE FILLING

6 Sweet Apples Peeled and Cored

1/2 Fresh Lemon Juice

300g Blackberries

2 Tbsp Coconut Sugar

2 Tbsp Water

FOR THE CRUMBLE

200g Ground Oats/Oatmeal

50g Ground Almonds (or your favourite nut)

2 Tbsp Melted Coconut Oil

1.5 Tbsp Maple Syrup

3 Tbsp Butterscotch Sauce

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 190C

2Add the apple segments to a large saucepan and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Shake the segments around so that they are coated in the lemon juice. This will add tartness to the fruit and it will stop the segments from browning. Then sprinkle with coconut sugar and water, and move the segments around again so they are evenly coated (or as much as possible.

3Put the blackberries carefully on top of the apple. Then put the lid on the saucepan and cook on a medium heat for 10 minutes, mixing carefully every 2 or 3 minutes.

4Whilst the fruit is cooking, add all the crumble ingredients to a large mixing bowl, starting with the dry ingredients first. The crumble should be of a consistency that when you press it together in your fingers, it sticks together.

5 Add the cooked fruit into a medium-large baking dish. Then evenly disperse the crumble on top. Make sure to pat down the crumble firmly so that it helps seal and steam the fruit underneath.

6Put the crumble in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes

7Serve with vegan ice cream, cream or custard
