Method

1

Prepare the fruit

Heat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Wash, peel and core the apples, then cut into 1 cm pieces. Put in a 1.5 litre baking dish with 20 g brown sugar, water and 1 tbsp juice squeezed from the lemon. Toss together.

2

Make the topping

Cut the cold butter into small cubes. Rub it into the flour with your fingertips until coarse crumbs form. Mix in oats, remaining 45 g sugar, cinnamon and salt. Scatter evenly over the apple without pressing it down.

3

Bake and rest

Bake for 35–40 minutes until the topping is golden, the fruit bubbles at the edges and an inserted knife meets soft apple. Rest for 10 minutes before dividing into four portions.

Keep the topping loose for a crisp surface; cover loosely with foil if it browns before the apple softens.
