Food Again! Apple Crumble

And here I am, back to food. Wanted to share with you my latest creation - Apple Crumble. This is what it looked like...

And here's the close-up...

And my inspiration? The Purple Foodie. A gal who blogs with such passion that I feel like eating the screen when I read her posts and view her scrumptious pics. Here's the recipe I followed. Only left out the walnuts cos I didn't have any at home.

Added later:
Just thought that I'd put this recipe here too. In case you wanted to follow it. Thanks Purple Foodie!

Crispy Apple Crumble Recipe

2 Granny Smith apples, cored and diced
2 tbsp Brown sugar
½ tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp / 30g / 1oz. cold butter, cut into cubes

Topping:
½ cup oats
½ cup flour
1/4th cup granulated sugar
1/4th cup brown sugar
1/4th cup walnuts, chopped
5 tbsp / 75g / 2.65 oz. cold butter, cut into cubes

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C.
2. In a bowl, toss together apple, brown sugar and cinnamon, until well coated.
3. Grease an ovenproof dish with butter and transfer the apples to it. Dot with cold butter. Set aside.
4. In another bowl mix together the ingredients for the topping. Cut the butter into the mixture with a pastry cutter. Refrigerate this for about 10 minutes if you’ve got the time.
5. Spread chunks of the topping mixture over the apples and bake for 35-40 minutes until the apples are done.
6. If the apples are rather juicy, you might have to drain off the excess juices halfway through baking.
7. Serve the apple crumble with vanilla icecream with caramel sauce or even better, Dulce de Leche.

I ate 2 bowls of this already. And tell myself that at least I am eating apples hehe.
