Apple crumble and homemade ice cream

This week we got to devour our hard work. After chopping the apples up from the Arahoe School orchard (plus some more apples from Mrs Tuck's apple tree), we made a truly delicious crumble to go with our homemade ice cream. Great work Eco Kids of Term 1 and thank you to all our wonderful parent helpers.

After many years of trial and error and amalgamating other recipes I think I've finally perfected it! Or to the delight of my taste buds anyway. Ingredients Serves: 8 7 large green apples 1/4 cup caster sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon (ground) 1 cup plain flour 3/4 cup (packed) dark brown sugar 3/4 cup rolled oats 3/4 cup coconut 1 tablespoon cinnamon (ground) 2 teaspoons nutmeg (ground) 2/3 cup butter (melted) 2 teaspoons vanilla essence Preparation method Prep: 45 minutes |Cook: 45 minutes 1. APPLE MIX 2. Peel and core apples, then cut into rough 1-2cm cubes. Place apples in large saucepan and cover with water. Simmer (but don't boil) covered with lid on med-high until apples are just tender but not too soft (usually 5mins once water is simmering). Drain apples well and place in large bowl 3. Combine caster sugar and cinnamon (ensures even spread), then toss through the apples. If you like the apples to be less sweet and more tart you can omit the sugar in this step, though there may be excess juice as a result. 4. CRUMBLE MIX 5. Combine flour, brown sugar, rolled oats, coconut, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl until evenly mixed through. 6. Melt butter (do not burn or boil it) and add vanilla essence to butter, stir through. 7. Add butter mix to dry ingredients and mix well using a fork. Ensure all ingredients are moist and mixture has a crumbly texture. 8. BAKING 9. Place apple mix evenly in medium casserole dish. Spread crumble mix over top of apple. Bake at 180 degrees C for 30-40minutes, or until crumble topping is slightly browned. 10. Serve with vanilla icecream, cream, or custard and ENJOY!
