Cinnamon – spiced, wholesome, wintery gorgeousness! I love cinnamon in everything and the key to making a good crumble is the cinnamon!! This easy recipe can be prepped in a matter of minutes, baked in under and hour and have your home smelling like Christmassy love and laughter! Served with ice-cream or double cream or even by itself is enough to satisfy anyone and everyone! Here’s how we do it:

What you need:

450g cored, skinned and chopped Granny smith green apples
225g unrefined brown sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
300g plain flour
200g butter, cubed

What you do:

1) per-heat the oven to 180 C
2) to make the crumble: mix together 300g plain flour, 1 tsp cinnamon and 175g brown sugar. Rub the cubes of butter into the flour and sugar mixture till it reaches a crumbly consistency.
3) place the apples in an oven proof bowl topping with 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tbsp plain flour and 50g unrefined brown sugar, shake it about getting the fruit fully spiced and sugared.
4) sprinkle the crumble on top of the apple mixture and bake for 40minutes.
