Individual Apple Crumbles

Ingredients

• 3 Honeycrisp or Fuji apples, peeled and sliced
• 35–50g brown sugar
• 15–20g butter
• 3g ground cinnamon
• 0.5g ground nutmeg
• 5ml vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt
• 100g cold butter
• 110g plain flour
• 25g brown sugar
• 50g white sugar
• 1.5–3g ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg
• 1 pinch salt
• whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream, optional, for serving

Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 190°C.
2. Cook the apples, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and salt in a pan over medium heat until the apples soften and become glossy and caramelized.
3. Rub the cold butter into the flour, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt until coarse crumbs form.
4. Divide the apple filling among ramekins and cover each generously with crumble.
5. Bake until golden and bubbling, 20–25 minutes. For a crisper top, broil for the final 2 minutes.
6. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
