Toffee Apple Crumble is a warm, comforting dessert that combines tender, spiced apples with a rich, buttery toffee sauce, all topped with a crunchy, golden crumble. This dessert is a delightful twist on the classic apple crumble, adding a layer of decadence with the sweet toffee flavor that complements the tartness of the apples. It’s the perfect treat to serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of cream, making it an ideal dessert for autumn evenings or special gatherings.
Ingredients:
For the Filling:
- 4 large apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup heavy cream
For the Crumble Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the brown sugar. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sugar dissolves and begins to caramelize slightly.
- Add the sliced apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft. Stir in the heavy cream and cook for another 2 minutes until a rich toffee sauce forms. Remove from heat and pour the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, melted butter, and salt. Mix until the topping forms a crumbly texture.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp.
- Let the crumble cool slightly before serving, and enjoy it warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
This Toffee Apple Crumble is a deliciously rich and comforting dessert that will bring cozy, autumnal flavors to your table!
