Apple and Pear Crumble

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200ºC fan-forced and lightly grease a 20cm round pie dish.

Step 2

Peel and slice the pears and apples into quarters and place them along with the water, cinnamon and caster sugar and 2 tablespoons of water into a large saucepan with the lid on and cook over a medium heat for 6 - 8 minutes or until the fruit is just tender when tested with a knife. Drain the excess fluid and transfer the cooked fruit to your pie dish.

Step 3

While the apple and pears are cooking you can make the crumble topping by placing all of the crumble ingredients into a medium bowl and rubbing the butter in until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Sprinkle the crumble topping over the top of the cooked fruit and place the baking dish into the oven to cook for 30 - 35 minutes or until the crumble begins to turn a lovely golden brown on top.

Step 5

Carefully remove from the oven and serve.
