Lola’s Kitchen is a feature on Lola’s Reviews where I talk about all things related to food, cooking and baking. These posts can be recipe posts or more discussion type posts about food. I love cooking and spend some time in the kitchen almost every day, so I wanted to give it a place on my blog as well. The banner for this feature is designed by Michelle from Limabean Design.
What’s not to love about apple crumble? I love apples, especially warm ones and I love crumble. My sister used to make this now and then when we had a lot of apples, eventually she had less time to cook and bake, so we lamost never ate it anymore. And we had a lot of apples so I decided to give it a try myself. It’s so easy to make and I don’t get why I didn’t try this earlier. It only costs a few minutes preparation time and it’s so easy, you can’t really mess it up. The 30 minute wait while it’s in the oven is a bit frustrating though. If you love apples, give this recipe a try!
This recipe is based on the apple crumble recipe from Hello Hue.
Ingredients
- Apples – 2-3
- Flour – 125 gram/ 1 cup
- Butter – 113 gram/ 1/2 cup
- Brown Sugar – 40 gram/ 1/4 cup
- Cinnamon (optional)
Method
- Pre heat your oven to 200 degrees Celcius/ 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a medium bowl combine the flour, butter and sugar. Add some cinnamon (optional). Kneed the dough with your hands and crumble till well mixed.
- Peel the apples and slice and dice them in small pieces.
- Lightly grease an oven proof bowl or cover with baking paper.
- Next put the apples in the oven proof bowl and add some cinnamon (optional), toss to coat. Then add the crumble on top.
- Place in the oven for 30 minutes till the top is golden brown.
- After 30 minutes get it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes and then eat. Enjoy!
My favorite way of making this is with two teaspoons cinnamon through the crumble, but no cinnamon through the apples.

Variation Tips
- Pear and Apple Crumble. Use 1 pear and one apple or two pears and one apple, instead of only apples.
- Use different fruit. Instead of apples try this recipe, with pears, peaches, blueberries or any other fruit or a combination of different fruits.
Oh that looks delish! I love desserts involving warm apples and cinnamon. I don’t really have a favorite.

I also love apples and cinnamon. Sometimes I make it without cinnamon as well. I also love apple pie and apples in puff pastry, should do a recipe post about those next time I make them.

I love it with or without cinnamon, the combination of warm apples and buttery crumble is so good. And indeed it’s easy to make as well.
Apple crumble and pies in the fall are pretty much the only thing I love about fall 😉 Yum!

I love seeing the leaves turn yellow, orange and red in fall. And apples ofcourse, although I eat them all year long they are best around fall.
Oh this looks so yummy! I love fruit desserts and apple ones are at the top of my list. I think this would also taste amazing with peaches!

Same here, I love apples. I also like banana’s and have a banana muffin rcipe coming as recipe post later this year, but I mostly make things with apples. I also should do an apple pie recipe once!
I also would love to try this with peaches or other fruit once!
I love love love this dessert, make it all the time in the microwave. Just leave off flour and make more of a sauce outta the brown sugar and cinnamon.

Oh that sounds handy and quick to make it in the microwave! Great idea! I lvoe the crumble, but I can also imagine it would be nice to make the microwave version if you have less time or don’t want to wait, lol.
Lol, its veryyyy great.
Lanie recently posted…Pew! Pew Pew! Books to Videogames!
I’ll give it a try once 🙂

I love these too! I eat mine with a hearty scoop of vanila ice cream and a drizzle of caramel and pecans.
Happy weekend!

I usually don’t have ice cream at home, so I usually just eat it like this. Although now I really want to get some ice cream and add that next time I make this. In Switzerland and Germany they often sell apple strudel with ice cream and vanilla sauce and it’s delicious!

Oh that looks so good. I’ve done something similar with peaches but I’ve never done it with apples. I usually make apple pie.
Mary Kirkland recently posted…Freebie Friday!
I also like apple pie, but this is a bit faster to make, so when I want apple on a short notice I usually make this. I’ll try to do a apple pie recipe post eventually as well as I have a good recipe for that one as well.
I want to try peaches with crumble once in the future!
I really like to combine blueberries and apples for a crumble, though just apple is amazing too. And I put in less sugar because I don’t need it to be so sweet. You’re completely right though, crumbles are so easy to make!
Celine recently posted…Review: Magic Burns by Ilona Andrews
That’s a great idea to add blueberries! Will have to try that once. I halved the amount of sugar compared to the recipe I used for inspiration as that was too sweet to my taste as well. I like it to be somewhat sweet, but not too overwhelming. Before I tried making crumbles myself I thought it would be difficult to make, so I was surprised at how easy it was.
I’m not much of a baker. What you have there looks really yummy. Mostly, when I bake, it is brownies from a box. *fails* I’m also very lucky if the brownies get baked. I really like brownie batter. 🙂
Melanie Simmons @mlsimmons recently posted…Wanderlust Audiobook by Skye Warren (REVIEW)
lol, I am always a bit afraid to eat the batter because of the raw egg. I actually have a brownie recipe coming up on the blog somewhere in the next few months. And I also like to just bake something from a box sometimes, most box mixes are pretty good.
Gosh, now I’m craving something baked with apples! This looks so delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe, Lola!

Sorry! It is really delicious though ;). I hope you’ll give this a try!
I absolutely love apple crumble! And I had no idea it was so easy to make, Lola, so thank you for this recipe! I will have to try it very soon, because we all love apples, and when it’s incorporated in dessert they are even better 🙂
Have a great weekend Lola.

I never realized how easy it was until I actually looked for a recipe, my sister always made it and it seemed complicated. If you love apples and dessert, you’re going to love this apple crumble. Hope you can make it soon!
Lola recently posted…Review: These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
Oh that looks yummy. Apples are one of the few fruits I’m okay with having in dessert (I know I’m weird lol) I can imagine the wait in the oven would be hard. Such yummy smells to tempt you.

Yeah that 30 minute wait is hardest part of this recipe! I don’t eat a lot of fruits in dessert either and when I am at a restaurant the only pie or cake or dessert with fruit I am going to give a try would be with apples. You can’t go wrong with apples.
I actually haven’t done many apple dishes…although I have one where you bake apples with cinnamon and sugar…and dang its good…takes a while to cook but they are so delicious. I really should try this crumble recipe. I am always looking for new desserts to try. Especially since I am trying to cook and bake more instead of buying things from the store.
Renee (@Addictofromance) recently posted…Stacking The Shelves (5)
Oh that dish with apples, cinnamon and sugar sounds good. I just love warm apples! And as long as it’s yummy, it’s worth the time spent making it. I am also trying to make more things from scratch and am often surprised at how easy it is. I hope you give this a try 🙂
Hear, hear! What *is* not to love about apple crumble?!? I will absolutely be preparing this recipe of yours…and very soon! Did I tell you I made your peanut butter chocolate chip cookies? My kids *loved* them!!
Bookworm Brandee recently posted…Teaser Tuesdays #68
Thanks for letting me know! I am glad to hear your kids loved the peanut butter chocolate chip cookies! I’ll have to make them again soon, it’s been a while sicne I last made them.
I can eat apple crumble multiple times a week if I am in the mood for it. It’s so good! I hope you give it a try!
Sounds yummy! My grandma called that “Apple Brown Betty”. I’ve had it with berries, too — raspberries and blackberries, delicious!

I’ve never heard of that word for apple crumble before, I only know it as apple crumble. I haven’t tried it with berries, so far only with apple and peaches, which I tried this week. I love blueberries in bakings, so I’ll have to try that!
