The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

    About 5 min

    Cook’s note: Toss well to ensure the apples are evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Pour the apple mixture into an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking dish and spread evenly.

    About 1 min

  4. 4

    In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt for the crumble topping.

    About 2 min

  5. 5

    Add the cold, diced vegan butter to the dry crumble ingredients.

  6. 6

    Use your fingertips or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

    About 5 min

    Cook’s note: Avoid overworking the dough; some larger pieces of butter are fine.

  7. 7

    Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apple mixture in the baking dish.

    About 1 min

  8. 8

    Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender and bubbling.

    About 35 min

    Cook’s note: If the topping browns too quickly, you can loosely cover it with foil.

  9. 9

    Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

    About 5 min

    Cook’s note: Allowing it to cool helps the filling set.
