🥧 How To Make Jamie Oliver Gluten Free Apple Crumble:

Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour blend, xanthan gum (if needed), oats, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Add the melted butter and mix until well combined. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
In another bowl, toss the sliced apples with the gluten-free flour blend, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Spread the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Then, sprinkle the chopped nuts over the apples.
Break the chilled crumble topping into large chunks with a fork and scatter it evenly over the apple filling, pressing gently to adhere.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the center of the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for another 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the apples are tender.
Serve the crumble warm in bowls, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence. Enjoy!

💭 Recipe Tips:

Pick the Right Apples: Use Granny Smith apples because they are tart and firm, making the crumble taste great.
Slice Evenly: Cut the apples into even slices so they cook the same and get soft.
Chill the Topping: Chill the crumble topping in the fridge for 10 minutes to make it crumbly and delicious.
Cover with Foil: Cover the dish with foil when you start baking. This stops the topping from burning while the apples cook.
Serve Warm: Serve the apple crumble warm. It’s even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped cream.
