Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 large green apples, peeled and cored
⅓ cup water
3 tablespoons white sugar, or more to taste
½ pound fresh blackberries, or more to taste
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
⅓ cup unsalted butter, slightly softened

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Slice apples and place in a saucepan with water and 3 tablespoons sugar. Heat over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring every minute to prevent sticking. Stir in blackberries and taste, adjusting sugar if necessary. Make sure apples get thoroughly coated with blackberry juice. Cook for about 3 minutes; mixture will still be runny. Pour into a 2-quart casserole dish and allow to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, combine flour, sugar, and butter for crumble topping in a mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer or your fingers until it resembles bread crumbs. Pile the crumble topping evenly over the fruit.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Categories     Cobblers & Crisp Recipes     Dessert

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 medium apples ((Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp are recommended - cored, thinly sliced, and cut))
2 cups blackberries ((fresh or frozen, rinsed))
1 large lemon ((zest and juice))
2 Tbsp sugar
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup quick oats
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3/4 cup butter ((salted, melted))

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and butter or grease your eight individual ramekins or either a 2 qt baking dish or 9 x 13 baking pan. *The filling should cover the bottom of the flat baking dish adequately but not be deeper than approx 1 1/2 inches.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples with enough lemon juice to coat the sliced and cut apples (to prevent browning and add flavor). Add the lemon zest and sugar, stir to coat thoroughly. Then add the blackberries and stir them in gently.
  • Portion the filling out into your prepared ramekins or baking dish.
  • To make the crumble topping, combine the almond flour, quick oats, and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Add the melted butter and use a fork to coat the dry mixture. Break up any chunks and stir until you have a good crumbly appearance.
  • Use the fork to help spread the crumble topping over the fruit filling in your individual portions or baking dish. Transfer to the middle rack of your preheated oven and bake at 375° F (190°C) for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

175g light muscovado sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
2rounded tbsp demerara sugar

Sprinkle over the topping and bake for 1¼ -1 hour 20 minutes. Check after 50 minutes and cover loosely with foil if it is browning too much. When done the cake will feel firm, but test with a skewer.
  • Leave in the tin for 30 minutes before turning out, then cool on a wire rack. Peel off the paper before cutting. Will keep wrapped in foil or in a tin for up to 2 days.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Yield Makes one 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 12

Granulated sugar, for pan
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan, plus 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) cut into pieces
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
4 McIntosh apples (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, cored, and cut into 8 wedges
1 cup (1/2 pint) blackberries
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan, and dust with granulated sugar. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together melted butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, the milk, and eggs in another bowl. Whisk into flour mixture.
  • Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. Arrange apple wedges over batter, and sprinkle with blackberries. Gently press fruit into batter. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and the cinnamon, and sprinkle over fruit. Dot with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bake until top is dark gold, apples are tender, and a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Let cool. Serve with whipped cream if desired.

Tips for a Perfect Apple Blackberry Crumble Cake:

  • Choose the right apples and blackberries: For the best flavor, use tart apples such as Granny Smith or Braeburn, and ripe, juicy blackberries.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too soft.
  • Toss the fruit in lemon juice: This will help prevent the apples from browning and add a bit of brightness to the flavor.
  • Don't overmix the crumble topping: Otherwise, it will become tough. Just mix it until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cake until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through and the fruit is tender.
  • Let the cake cool slightly before serving: This will help the topping set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This apple blackberry crumble cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tart apples, sweet blackberries, and buttery crumble topping is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this cake a try.
