Making Apple Crumble

One of our children brought in some apples and the children were curious about them. Mrs. Bombardier has been reading some apple poems and books with the children to help explore this idea. Today she decided to make apple crumble with our class.

Reading a book about how apples grow.

Discussing what ingredients are needed for apple crumble.

Apple Crumble

Topping:

2/3 cup all purpose flour
2/3 cup quick oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup soft butter or margarine

Fruit Mixture:

4-5 medium apples (peeled and cored)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp. lemon juice

Slice apples and place in an 8 inch buttered dish. Add brown sugar and lemon juice. Blend well. Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Cut butter into dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle topping over fruit and bak for 30 mins. (or until done) at 375 degrees F. Serve warm, plain, or with whipped cream. Enjoy!
