Instructions

1.
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).

Chef's Tips

If you don't have Jersey Black Butter, you can use apple butter and add a pinch of mixed spice (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves) to the apple filling.

For a crispier topping, chill the crumble topping in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.

Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking, depending on the sweetness of the apples.

You can add other fruits to the filling, such as blackberries or raspberries, for a more complex flavor.

Store leftover crumble in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
