Grannie's Apple Crumble

Back to recipe list

Source & History

This is my grandmother’s (mother’s mother) recipe. It has been a favourite dessert in my house for years (up there with Gram’s Baked Fudge Pudding).

Notes

  • In my family, where fruit is less popular than crumble, we usually double the quantities for the crumble
  • I often use canned pie apple filling (the huge can in the tinned fruit section of the supermarket) instead of the fresh fruit
  • I sprinkle the fruit with a little brown sugar & cinnamon
  • You can use any fruit: apricots, peaches, rhubarb & strawberries
