Apple crumble with demerara caramel latte

5.00

Is there anything more comforting than an apple crumble? Billington's light brown soft sugar, apple and oats is a heavenly combination, especially when finished with a generous amount of ice cream or custard. We've paired this with a Billington's demerara caramel latte. The demerara gives it an extra caramelly depth that pairs beautifully with the sweet apples. We recommend using a fresh, crisp apple like Gala or Pink Lady.

For the topping, mix together the flour, oats, a pinch of salt, light brown sugar and butter. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into flour until you have a bread crumb consistency. Squeeze handfuls of the crumble so it forms clusters
