Apple & Boozy Cranberries Crumble

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.

Pour the alcohol over the dried cranberries and leave for at least 1 hour (overnight is best!), stirring occasionally.

For the crumble mixture, place the flour and sugar in a large bowl and mix well. Taking a few cubes of butter at a time, rub into the flour mixture. Keep rubbing until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

For the fruit mixture, prepare the apples and squeeze half a lemon over them. Place the apples and cranberries in a large bowl and sprinkle the sugar and flour (and cinnamon if desired) over. Stir well, ensuring you’ve coated the fruit.

Butter a 24cm/9-inch ovenproof dish. Spoon the fruit mixture into the bottom, then sprinkle the crumble mixture on top.

Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes until the crumble is browned and the fruit mixture bubbling.

Serve with thick cream or vanilla ice cream.
