How to Make Apple Crumble Barbados
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Add ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes, and ¼ cup cold lard, cut into cubes. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
