Easy Apple and Cherry Crumble
Jazz up your traditional apple crumble by introducing cherries to your delicious apples – they are a match made in heaven! Our easy Apple and Cherry Crumble (also known as Cherry Apple Crisp in the US) is a perfect dessert to enjoy any time of year, even when fresh fruit is not in season, as the recipe uses frozen cherries. What is more, we use a simple method to make a crisp topping by pouring melted butter over dry ingredients instead of rubbing cold butter into the mixture! Easy and delicious!
