Recipe – Blackberry and Apple Crumble
Ingredients
| For the Crumble Topping | For the Blackberry and Apple Filling |
| 3/4 cup plain flour | 4 large green apples, peeled and cored |
| 1/2 cup brown sugar | 250g fresh or frozen blackberries |
| 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon | 1/4 cup brown sugar |
| Pinch salt | 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon |
| 120g unsalted butter, chopped into small pieces | 2 tbsp lemon juice |
| 3/4 cup instant porridge oats |
Directions
Step 1 – To make the crumble topping, place the plain flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt into a large bowl and mix to combine. Add the butter pieces and then with your fingers, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the porridge oats and mix well. Set aside.
Step 2 – In a separate bowl, toss together the filling ingredients until combined.
Step 3 – Prepare the BBQ for indirect cooking over medium heat (180 – 200°C). Ensure the grills are clean. If you are using a charcoal grill, keep at least half of the charcoal grate clear of briquettes or charcoal as a zone of indirect heat. If you are using a gas BBQ, light a burner on one side of the BBQ only. If you are using a Weber Q, set up the BBQ for indirect cooking with a trivet and convection tray.
Step 4 – Grease the bottom of the frying pan with a little butter then place the filling ingredients into the frying pan and top evenly with the crumble topping.
Step 5 – Place the frying pan into the BBQ, away from direct heat, and close the lid. Bake the crumble for around 20 minutes or until the topping is golden and the fruit bubbling at the edges. Serve immediately.
