Instructions

1.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.
In a bowl, combine the sliced apples, Jersey Black Butter, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
3.
Transfer the apple mixture to the baking dish, spreading evenly.
4.
In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
5.
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
6.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple mixture.
7.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
8.
While the crumble is baking, prepare the lavender cream. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the dried lavender flowers.
9.
Bring the cream to a simmer, then remove from heat and let steep for 15-20 minutes to infuse the flavor. Strain the cream through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lavender flowers.
10.
Whisk the lavender-infused cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Taste and add more powdered sugar if needed.
11.
Let the crumble cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a dollop of lavender cream.

Chef's Tips

For a richer crumble topping, add chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts.

Adjust the amount of Jersey Black Butter based on your preference for sweetness and intensity of flavor.

If you don't have time to make lavender cream, serve the crumble with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

The lavender cream can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to use. You may need to re-whip it briefly before serving.
