Ingredients for Apple Apricot Cranberry Crumble

  • Apple Cider
  • Dried Apricot

  • Grape Nuts Cereal
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • Honey

How to Make Apple Apricot Cranberry Crumble

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled and chopped apples (3 medium), chopped apricots (1 cup), cranberries (1 cup), brown sugar (1/2 cup), flour (1/4 cup), cinnamon (1 teaspoon), and nutmeg (1/4 teaspoon). Toss gently to coat.
  3. Pour the fruit mixture into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour (1 cup), oats (1 cup), brown sugar (1/2 cup), chopped pecans or walnuts (1/2 cup), cold butter (1/2 cup, cut into cubes), and a pinch of salt. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit filling.
  6. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
