Apple crumble

Apple crumble

Apple crumble—but this time, make it apple crumble. 

A twist on a British classic—with a hint of the Med—did you know you can also make crumble with olive oil? 

For this recipe we’ve opted for 50:50, but you can use as much or as little EVOO as you like.

Working best with a light, delicate oil, this recipe is the perfect pairing for your pouch this month—a delicious oil from Sparta.

It's not too late to join the Club to get it before it is gone. 

    Here's the method:

    Serves 4

    • Preheat your oven to 180°C.
    • Peel the apples.
    • Slice, remove the core, and then roughly chop.
    • Pop in to your crumble dish and add a sprinkle of cinnamon, 1 tbs caster sugar, and drizzle of olive oil. Stir or shake to coat. 
    • In a separate bowl add your flour, remaining caster sugar, cubed butter and olive oil. 
    • Mix by hand until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. 
    • Add your "breadcrumbs" to your apple mixture. 
    • Gently press the mixture down once it is on the apple. 
    • Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown. 
    • Enjoy with ice cream, custard, cream—or just as is!  

    Make it your own

    Use all extra virgin olive oil, or swap the butter for a plant-based alternative to make this completely plant based.

    The ultimate Greek salad

    This recipe is from our Cretan queen—Maria. We've sat around Maria's table in Crete many times learning her recipe for the perfect mix. Made for a sunshine moment, this dish is best enjoyed in the summer months when produce is at its best. Simple, quick, and oh so delicious, Greek salad is made (or broken!) by the freshness of the ingredients. This is a dish that really should be eaten in summer when tomatoes and cucumbers are in season. Maria opts for the addition of red wine vinegar for a...
