Prep time: 25 minutes

Cook time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

For the fruit filling:

  1. 4 medium organic apples
  2. 150g / 5½ oz blackberries
  3. 1 tablespoon agave nectar
  4. Pinch of cinnamon

For the crumble topping:

  1. 250g / 9 oz plain flour (wheat, spelt or gluten-free)
  2. 150g / 5½ oz vegan margarine, cut into cubes
  3. 50g / 2 oz fairtrade demerara sugar, plus a little extra to top
  4. 50g / 2 oz porridge oats (use gluten-free if needed)

Method

  • Wash the fruit. Core the apples and chop into cubes, roughly 2cm. Take a third of the chopped apples and simmer in a little water with the agave nectar and cinnamon.
  • Once they become soft and pulpy and can be lightly mashed with a wooden spoon to form a sauce, add the remaining apples and soften slightly for a couple of minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the blackberries gently so as not to crush them.
  • Pour the fruit mixture into an ovenproof dish and preheat your oven to 180ºC/350ºF/Gas Mark 4.
  • Meanwhile, rub the vegan margarine into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs, then stir in the oats and sugar.
  • Sprinkle the crumble topping onto the fruit filling and press it down lightly. Scatter a little extra sugar all over the top, then pop in the oven for about 25 minutes.
  • Serve hot with lashings and lashings of vegan custard!
