Ingredients

For the Topping

  • 150 g 6 ozwholemeal flour (whole wheat flour)
  • 150 g 6 oz room temperature butter, chopped into chunks
  • 100 g 4 oz light brown sugar
  • 50 g 2 oz porridge oats
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon

For the Filling

  • 25 g 1 oz unsalted butter
  • 400 g 14 ozrhubarb, chopped into chunks
  • 2 cooking apples peeled and chopped into chunks
  • 50 g 2 oz golden caster sugar
  • 50 g 1 oz light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 200°C/400°Ff/Gas 6. Have a medium, ovenproof dish to hand.
  • Place all of the ingredients for the topping into a large mixing bowl, and rub all the ingredients together with your fingers to create a crumble texture. Shake the bowl to bring larger pieces to the top and rub in further if desired. Place the bowl in the fridge while you make the filling.
  • To make the filling, melt the butter in a pan over medium heat, then add the chunks of rhubarb and apple.
  • Add both sugars, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir. Reduce heat to low and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened.
  • Pour the filling into the ovenproof dish and set it aside to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the topping over the now-cooled fruit filling and bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
  • Serve with custard, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!

Notes

  • Can be made in smaller dishes or ramekins for individual servings.
  • Store leftovers covered in the fridge for 3-4 days.
