Cranberry apple crumble

I went to stay with my mum for a few days this week, and we had a lovely time making Christmas cards on her new printing press. When I arrived I popped into her local grocer to buy some flowers, and couldn't resist a punnet of shiny, glowing red cranberries. I turned them into a crumble with apples, cinnamon and an oat and almond topping. This turned out to be wonderful for breakfast!

Ingredients

For the crumble topping
4 oz plain flour
4 oz butter, cubed and at room temperature
4 oz ground almonds
4 oz soft brown sugar
4 oz oats
2 oz flaked almonds
1 tsp cinnamon

For the filling
8 small eating apples, peeled, cored and chopped
8 oz cranberries
2 oz golden caster sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 oz butter, cubed and at room temperature

Method 

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
2. Place the flour in a large mixing bowl, add the butter and rub with your finger tips until it looks crumbly and evenly dispersed. 
3. Add the ground almonds, oats, brown sugar, flaked almonds and cinnamon and combine.
4. Place the chopped apples in a large pie dish, scatter over the cranberries and press down tightly.
5. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, and dot with butter.
6. Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the fruit, pressing it down evenly with a fork.
7. Bake in the oven for 30-40 mins until the top is golden brown.
