I am now 14 days into Spring 2009 but have just baked a classic winter warmer, apple and berry crumble. The last few days of sunny, warming weather have quickly moved on to make way for a colder temperature with even a spot of rain on the weekend. While I frantically went around the house looking for warmer clothes tonight I realised that I had no choice but to bake this crumble recipe from taste.com my favourite go-to online recipe bank.
This recipe is one of my favourite kinds to work with. I like to refer to them as 'multi-tasking recipes'. You sort out one part of the recipe and get it going (in this case cooking the apples) while you prepare the final touches (in this case the crumble topping). I always feel super efficient after following recipes like this crumble one, such a good confidence booster!
I only had mixed berries on hand but they seemed to work well with the apple and cinnamon flavours and there were certainly no complaints from the eaters. I will admit that I was a tad naughty with this recipe and actually doubled the topping. Double the amount of corn flakes and oats surely balances out double the amount of brown sugar and butter, doesn't it?
That extra topping is so worth it!
The addition of the mixed berries give the apples an extra tangy kick.

This looks absolutely delicious! I like multi tasking recipes a lot too :) It always makes me feel super efficient!
This looks awesome! I love dishes like this!!
I reckon a good apple crumble is seasonal at any time of the year, and this one looks delicious.
A nice oaty crumble - yum. It doesn't get much better than that!
Doubling the amount of topping seems just about right to me! Sounds fabulous.
