Our idea of heaven? Cozying up on the sofa, watching our favourite film while tucking into a bowl of this incredible crumble.
Technically you can use any variety of apple, but we love using Bramley for our crumble. They’re more acidic and sweeter, making them super delicious when stewed and baked.
You can also leave the skins on if you prefer, but the texture won’t be as soft.
Substitute plan flour for a gluten-free version if you want to make this gluten-free.
To make this recipe soy-free avoid using soya milk and use another plant-based milk instead.

Ingredients
For the apple and berry filling:
800g / 28.2oz Bramley apples
500g / 17.6oz mixed frozen Berries
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
1 tbsp cornflour
1/2 lemon
5 tbsp light brown sugar
For the crumb:
120g / 4.2oz plain flour
100g / 3.5oz vegan margarine
100g / 3.5oz light brown sugar, plus extra for dusting
50g / 1.7oz rolled oats
For the custard:
500ml / 16.9 fl.oz soya milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 tbsp sugar
pinch of turmeric (optional)
2 tbsp cornflour
Instructions
Peel the apples, remove the cores and cut into bite-sized pieces. Then add the apples to a saucepan over a medium heat along with the remaining ingredients for the apple and berry mixture. Cook for 10 minutes or until the apples have started to soften a little, stirring frequently.
Meanwhile add all the crumb ingredients to a mixing bowl and use your fingertips to rub the margarine into the dry ingredients to form a crumb-like consistency.
Next, preheat the oven to 200°C / 390°F fan.
Transfer the apple and berry mixture to a 28cm x 18cm (11” x 7”) baking dish. Sprinkle the crumb all over and finish with an extra sprinkling of sugar. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crumble is slightly golden and the fruit is bubbling.
Meanwhile, to prepare the custard, add the soya milk, vanilla extract sugar and a pinch of turmeric to a saucepan on a medium heat. Next combine the cornflour in 2 tbsp water and stir until fully dissolved. Add the cornflour mixture to the pan and bring the custard to a gentle simmer. Whisk regularly and cook for 5 minutes until hot and thickened. Add a pinch more turmeric if needed for a more yellow colour.
