Ingredients

1kg apples (Bramley apples work well)
Small punnet of blackberries
2cm piece of fresh or stem ginger from a jar
150g unsalted butter
300g gluten free plain flour
1 tbsp of caster (use more brown sugar if you don't have any caster)
200g soft brown sugar
Water - to prevent drying out

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180C, Gas Mark 4.
In a large bowl, combine your flour and sugar, before cutting the butter into chunks and rubbing it through the dry ingredients with your fingertips, to form crumbs.
Peel and core your apples, cutting them into 2-3cm chunks. Layer them, alongside the blackberries into the base of a crumble / pie dish. Grate over your stem ginger (or cut into thin slices if you prefer larger chunks of ginger!). Sprinkle over the tbsp of sugar. At this stage add 3-5 tbsp of water just to prevent the fruit drying out while cooking.
Cover the fruit with the crumble topping, do not pack it down, just allow it to sit on the top.
Pop into the oven for 30-40 minutes until golden on top and the fruit is perfectly cooked through.
Enjoy with your choice of cream, custard or ice cream!
