Salted Caramel Apple Crumble Recipe
Hi guys! Today, I'm showing you how to make a mouthwatering salted caramel apple crumble. This recipe is perfect for the autumn season and will surely be a hit with your family and friends. The combination of sweet apples and homemade salted caramel takes this classic dessert to the next level. Don't worry, making salted caramel is easier than you think!
To make the caramel sauce, start by melting caster sugar in a pan over medium heat. Give it a gentle stir to prevent burning. The sugar will clump together, but keep stirring until it becomes smooth. Once smooth, remove from heat and add chunks of butter, being careful as it will foam up. After the butter has melted, gradually pour in cream while stirring continuously. Finally, add sea salt flakes for that extra flavor. Let the caramel sauce cool while you prepare the apple crumble.
Peel and chop Bramley apples into smaller chunks, removing the cores. Place the apple chunks in water to prevent browning. In a separate pan, add the apple chunks, sugar, and water. Mix well and let it simmer for about six minutes to soften the apples. They should not be too soft since they will be baked later.
Now it's time to make the crumble topping. In a bowl, combine plain flour and unsalted butter. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until it resembles coarse crumbs. You can even leave some bigger chunks for extra texture. Add oats for a delicious crunch and mix everything together.
To assemble the crumble, pour some of the salted caramel over the apples (use as much as you prefer) and mix well. Divide the mixture into serving dishes and sprinkle the crumble topping on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 160 degrees Celsius (fan) for 20-30 minutes or until the top turns golden.
Once baked, serve the salted caramel apple crumble with your favorite ice cream and drizzle some extra salted caramel on top for an indulgent touch. This recipe is so easy to make and will impress everyone at the table. Enjoy!
