  •  
  • 200g California Prunes, halved
  • 8 small Bramley apples, peeled and chopped

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
  2. In a medium sized saucepan cook the apples with the sugar and water until soft but not puréed.
  3. Add the California Prunes and place in an oven dish. Mix together the flour, ground almonds and brown sugar then, using only your fingertips, rub the butter into the mixture.
  4. Sprinkle the crumble mix over the apple and California Prune mixture and place in the pre-heated oven.
