TOFFEE APPLE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Make the Toffee Sauce first (I often make this a day or two in advance) by placing all the ingredients in a saucepan and simmering on a low to medium heat until everything has melted together and you have a smooth sauce Remove from the heat and pour into a heatproof jug.
• To make the crumble, place the flour, oats and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Rub in the cold diced butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the demerara sugar.
• Preheat the oven to 180C/160Fan/350F/Gas Mark 4. Place the apples in a large saucepan and set over a low heat. Add the sugar and ground cinnamon if using and cook the apples for about 5 minutes or until they are just beginning to soften. The cooking apples will start to cook down and turn a little pulpy, but that's exactly how you want them. When the apples have started to soften and the sugar has dissolved, remove from the heat and pour the apples into a large pie dish.
• Spoon over the cooled caramel sauce and top with the crumble, spreading it evenly over the apples. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden and bubbling. Serve warm with the extra caramel sauce and ice cream.

BAKED APPLE & TOFFEE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Put everything for the apple layer, except the lemon juice and apples, into a bowl and microwave on High for 1½ mins until the butter has melted and the sugar is syrupy. Toss in the apples and lemon juice, then spoon into a medium baking dish, making sure the dried fruit is evenly distributed.
• Rub the flour and butter together, first into fine crumbs, then keep going until the mix forms bigger clumps, a bit like a rough biscuit dough. Stir in the sugar, oats and almonds. Scatter over the fruit, then cover with foil and bake for 1 hr, removing the foil for the final 30 mins, until golden and bubbling. Rest for 10 mins, then serve with custard or ice cream.
