Apple and rhubarb crumble

Ingredients

For the filling:

500g Bramley apples, peeled and chopped

500g rhubarb, cut into chunks

25g caster sugar (50g orig)

15g plain flour

375g plain flour

100g oats

75g caster sugar (half ratio)

custard or pouring cream 

Method

1. Place the rhubarb and apples in the bottom of a suitable sized casserole dish or similar, mix well.

2. Sprinkle over the caster sugar and flour and mix again. (they don't precook, if not, I'd suggest cooking for at least 40 mins)

For the crumble:

3. Place the flour, oats, caster sugar, butter and ground ginger in a bowl.

4. Rub the fat into the dry ingredients until incorporated but still with a few lumps.

5. Sprinkle the crumble mix over the fruit and spread evenly.

6. Place in the oven at 180C for around 40 minutes. (20 orig)

7. Remove from the oven when the top is golden

8. Serve hot with custard or some fresh pouring cream
