1.2 kg granny smith apples, 1 tablespoon plain flour, 1/2 cup caster sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 cup frozen raspberries
For the topping: To a large bowl, add the rolled oats, plain flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, sea salt and shredded coconut. Break up the butter and add to the bowl. Using your fingers, combine the mix together into clumps (like wet sand). Pour the topping over the apples and spread to the edges with a spoon.
1 1/2 cups oats, 1 cup plain flour, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, pinch sea salt, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, 130 g butter
Bake for 30–40 minutes, until the apples are soft and the crumble mix has slightly browned and has a bit of crunch. Remove and let it sit for 10 minutes, so the apples come together.
Serve with a dollop cream of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
If you want to prepare this earlier, follow all the steps and bake for half the time. Remove and cover with foil. When you’re ready to serve, place it back in the oven for 20 minutes (without foil) to finish the cooking process.
