Golden Syrup Apple Crumble – the BEST kind.

I mentioned on twitter earlier that Golden Syrup Crumble is probably one of the best things to eat straight from the mixing bowl and suddenly it seemed that everyone wanted the recipe. I thought I’d best post it here, so that I can just send the link.

Ingredients:

1/4 c of SR flour
1/2 c of rolled oats
1 teaspoon of mixed spice
1/4 c of butter
1/4 c of golden syrup
1/8 c of sugar (leave it out if you don’t like it super sweet – I was feeling in desperate need of sugar)

Method:

Pop all of the ingredients into a stand mixer and mix until it looks like crumble. A food processor would also work, although be careful, because you don’t want to grind your oats to powder.

If you’re using your hands, rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips, then add the oats and golden syrup and expect to get messy. Using a wooden spoon, or a knife, stir everything together until it’s combined.

Use it on top of whatever fruit you’ve got handy, bake in an oven dish at 180C for 15 minutes or so.

Today I used canned peaches and golden delicious apples, I’ve used an entire tin of fruit salad (drained) before and I had a delicious crumble using apple and blackberries, before the frost and birds put paid to the blackberries. The only time it’s failed is when I used frozen mixed berries, which are frankly, horrendous tasting.
