Special options

Alternative to apple crumble with seasonal fruits.

Ingredients

  • 16 fresh apricots
  • 2 tbsp castor sugar
  • 125g plain flour
  • 100g castor sugar
  • 50g shredded coconut
  • 110g ground almonds
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 175g unsalted butter, at room temperature

Method

Pre-heat oven to 180C.

Cut the apricots in half, discard the kernels and arrange in a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle over the 2 tbsp of castor sugar.

In a separate bowl, mix the remaining dry ingredients together, then rub in the butter. The result should resemble coarse crumbs. If it feels a little dry, work in a little more butter. Sprinkle over the apricots and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
