Apple Crumble With Halva Topping Food

APPLE CRUMBLE WITH HALVA TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch or 9-inch baking dish.
• Mix together apples, lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Evenly spread fruit in the prepared baking dish.
• Mix halva, oats, flour, and salt to a crumbly consistency. Sprinkle over the fruit and cover with aluminum foil to prevent top from browning too quickly.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and well browned, about 45 minutes. Let cool to allow the topping to harden.

HALVA APPLE PIE BARS

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8-by-8-inch square pan with enough parchment paper to have 1-inch wings on 2 sides.
• In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, combine the butter, sugar, vanilla and salt and beat on medium until pale and fluffy. Reduce to low, add both flours and mix to combine. Press evenly into the pan and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes, while you make the filling.
• For the filling: In a large bowl, toss the apples with the lemon juice. Sprinkle in the flour, sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and salt and toss to combine. Arrange evenly on top of the crust.
• For the crumble: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Add the butter and mix with your hands until crumbly. Sprinkle all over the apples. Sprinkle on the halva or marzipan and sprinkles, if using. Bake until the crumbles begin to brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan completely, about 1 hour and then slice into bars. Enjoy!

THE BEST APPLE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170 fan/gas 5.
• Toss 575g peeled, cored and sliced Bramley apples with 2 tbsp golden caster sugar and put in a 23cm round baking dish at least 5cm deep, or a 20cm square dish. Flatten down with your hand to prevent too much crumble falling through.
• Put 175g plain flour and 110g golden caster sugar in a bowl with a good pinch of salt.
• Slice in 110g cold butter and rub it in with your fingertips until the mixture looks like moist breadcrumbs. Shake the bowl and any big bits will come to the surface - rub them in. Alternatively, pulse in a processor until sandy (don't over-process).
• Pour the crumb mix over the apples to form a pile in the centre, then use a fork to even out.
• Gently press the surface with the back of the fork so the crumble holds together and goes crisp, then lightly drag the fork over the top for a decorative finish.
• Sprinkle 1 tbsp rolled oats and 1 tbsp demerara sugar over evenly, if you wish.
• Set on a baking tray and put in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the top is golden and the apples feel very soft when you insert a small, sharp knife. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

APPLE CRUMBLE WITH GRANOLA TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Core, peel (or not) and slice apples.
• In a large bowl, stir together apples, brown sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon.
• Put in a 9"x9" casserole dish and dot with 1/3 of the butter.
• Place granola in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin to break it up.
• Place granola in a bowl and add the rest of the butter.
• Using a fork, push the butter into the crushed granola, working it through.
• Sprinkle the mixture over the apples.
• Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
• Remove foil and bake about 10 minutes longer or until the topping has browned.
• Let stand for approximately 10 minutes then serve with vanilla ice cream.
• Enjoy!
