My Gluten Free Apple Berry Crumble Recipe (dairy free + vegan)
My gluten free apple berry crumble recipe is dairy free, vegan, super easy to make at home and perfect with some custard and/or ice cream!
Ingredients
For the crumble
- 170 g gluten free plain flour
- 85 g hard margarine (or butter if not dairy free)
- 70 g light brown sugar
- 3 tsp cinnamon
- 50 g gluten free oats (if you can't tolerate oats these can be removed)
- 40 g pecan nuts, chopped (this is optional)
For the fruit
- 300 g cooking apples (you can use other apples if you prefer)
- 30 g hard margarine (or butter if not dairy free)
- 30 g light brown sugar
- 70 g blackberries
- 70 g raspberries (you can change the berries up if you want)
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Rub together your hard margarine (or butter) and gluten free plain flour. Do this until it forms a breadcrumbs texture.
- Stir in your sugar, cinnamon, pecans and oats. Put to one side whilst you tend to your fruit.
- Peel and chop your apples. (The smaller you chop them the more of a compote texture you'll get. I tend to leave mine a little chunkier, but they still totally soften once cooked).
- Place your 30g hard margarine (or butter if not dairy free) and 30g sugar into a saucepan and gently melt them together. Once melted leave on a medium heat for a couple of minutes so it starts to try and caramelise a little.
- Then add your chopped apples and 1/4 tsp of cinnamon. Stir in for 2-3 minutes before adding your berries. Cook for a further 2-3 minutes - some of the berries will start to break up a bit.
- Pop your oven on 180C Fan.
- In your ovenproof dish (I used a skillet but any dish could be fine) place all your fruit and any juices. Top with your crumble mixture evenly and place in the oven for 25-30 minutes. The top should be a little golden and the fruit all cooked.
- Serve up with your choice of custard, ice cream or cream. There are dairy free options of all of these available. I like to make my own custard :) Enjoy!
