A dear friend gifted a set of Le Creuset mini-cocottes to me for our housewarming. I couldn't wait to use them, so I made personal apple crumbles. Here's my recipe:
Ingredients
For each apple crumble, you will need:
- 1 medium apple, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 1 tablespoon of flour
- 1 tsp of brown sugar for apples, plus 2 tablespoons for crumble
- 1 tablespoon of cold butter
- 2 tablespoons of quick cooking oats
- 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon for apples, plus 1/8 teaspoon for crumble
- vanilla ice cream, for serving
Directions
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the apples with 1 tsp of brown sugar and 1/8 tsp of cinnamon. Stir to coat.
- Place the apples in your mini-cocottes or ramekins
- In another bowl, mix the flour, and brown sugar together
- Cut in the cold butter with two forks, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs
- Add the oats and cinnamon to the mixture and sprinkle it over the apples
- Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender (The apples will shrink, so feel free to pile up the apples and crumble topping.)
Serve with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
