This is a recipe I’ve been cooking for a very long time, it’s a great pudding and it has gone down perfectly everywhere I have seen it cooked.
Serves 6 good sized portions.
Ingredients
(for the base)
1kg peeled, cored and sliced cooking apples
60g light muscavado sugar
1tbsp ground cinnamon
(for the topping)
150g plain wholemeal flour
150g porridge oats
1tbsp baking powder
90g butter
150g light mucavado sugar
Method
Place the apples into a shallow, ovenproof dish, and sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon.
Put the flour, porridge oats and baking powder into a bowl, and run in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples, without pressing it down, and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180oC, 350oF, Gas 4 (slightly less for fan or more powerful ovens) for 30-40 minutes until golden brown. Serve hot with ice-cream or just cream.
