Instructions
  1. To make the middle, peel and core the apple and pear and cop into small chunks. Add into a shallow pan with the water and bring to a reasonable heat then simmer for around 8 minutes. Add in 1 tsp coconut sugar (other natural substitutes can be used like molasses or raw cane sugar but coconut sugar is what I had in the cupboard and worked well). Stir fruit until softened…
  2. Whilst the fruit is cooking down, separate the oats into two piles and blitz one half in a nutribullet or coffee grinder to turn into powder. Transfer this into a bowl with the whole oats and the butter cut into small chunks. Mix and combine this by hand, until the mixture is nice and crumbly. Then add the rest of the sugar. and mix again. You may need a little more butter but always start with less and build up.
  3. Take the fruit off the heat. ayer into the bottom of you cooking dish (I think I got this mini one from pound-stretchers in the UK) then carefully crumble over your crumble mix until all gaps are covered. I like my crumble crunchy and the oats are a fabulous way of doing this.
  4. Transfer the crumble into the oven at around 160 – 180 so the top doesn’t burn. Cook for around 10 minutes to get the top nice and crispy. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes whilst you decide what type of sauce you want. I cheated and bought ready made dairy free custard but you can make your own custard if you prefer. Enjoy your sweet treat and love the glow of a happy belly afterwards.
