Nothing says autumn in the UK quite like the scent of a freshly-baked apple crumble. British autumn time brings with it an abundance of seasonal fruits in an array of colours and flavours.

We've taken inspiration from The Somerset collection to create our very own autumnal Apple & Fig Crumble recipe...

Ingredients:

For the fruit filling:
- 350g apples (peeled, cored, diced)
- 300g ripe figs (cut into four)
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp caster sugar
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon

For the crumble topping:

- 175g plain flour
- 125g soft brown sugar
- 50g rolled oats
- 125g unsalted butter (cold, cubed)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C (fan), and lightly butter a baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine your diced apples and figs and stir through
    the lemon juice. Sprinkle over your sugar and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, and oats. Add the cold, cubed
    butter and crumble using your fingers until you are left with a coarse
    breadcrumb-like mixture.
  4. Scatter your crumble topping evenly over your fruit mixture. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and bubbling at the edges.
  5. Serve warm with custard, heavy cream, or ice cream!
