    How to Make Rustic Apple Pecan Crumble

    1. Prep

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with butter.

    2. Crumb Mixture

    In a medium bowl, mix together flour, 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, oats, pecans, and salt. Pour in the melted butter. Stir with a fork until the mixture forms even crumbs.

    3. Apple Mixture

    Toss the apple wedges in the prepared baking dish with the remaining 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice until well coated. Spread the apples into an even layer at the bottom of the dish.

    4. Assemble and Bake

    Clump the crumb mixture with your fingers to create varying sizes of crumbs and evenly sprinkle over the apples. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is crisp and a deep golden brown.

    5. Serve

    Enjoy the crumble warm or at room temperature.

    Variations

    Berry Almond Crumble

    Use mixed berries and slivered almonds with a touch of almond extract in the topping.

    Peach Ginger Crumble

    Swap apples for peaches and add crystallized ginger to the fruit base.

    Pear and Hazelnut Crumble

    Use pears, hazelnuts, and cardamom for a warm flavor profile.

    Fruit Variations

    Add pears, peaches, berries, or a handful of fresh cranberries to the apple mixture.

    Tropical Coconut Crumble

    Use pineapple and mango, swap pecans for macadamia nuts, and add shredded coconut to the topping.
