Steps

55 -60 minutes

1

Peel, core, and chop the apples into medium chunks.
2

Add apples and all filling ingredients to a STAUB dish. Cook over medium-low heat for 8–12 minutes, stirring, until softened but still holding shape. Remove from heat.
3

In a bowl, combine flour, butter, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Rub butter into flour with fingertips until crumbly, leaving some larger pieces.
4

Spread apples evenly in the dish. Sprinkle crumble topping over without pressing down.
5

Bake at 180°C fan (200°C conventional) uncovered for 15 minutes. Cover and bake another 15 minutes. If needed, uncover and bake 10 minutes more until golden and crisp.
6

Let sit 5–10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with custard, ice cream, or cream.

Tips

The combination of dark brown sugar, cinnamon, mixed spice, nutmeg, and vanilla gives the apples a deep, cosy autumn flavour, while the green apples add a little sharpness to balance the sweetness.
