Gluten free apple crumble with ground almonds. 🍏

Hi everyone,

I bought some wonderful local apples and made this crumble, for added flavour and nutrition I like to add extras so I added raisins with the apple as well as chia seeds as chia seeds absorb 10 their volume in water, so they make the fruit really nice and smooth. The crumble I made with 55g ground almonds 165g plain gluten free flour 110g organic butter and 50g unrefined sugar. I then sprinkled golden linseeds sesame seeds and flaked almonds on top and baked and will probably have to try some later...😊

Wow Hidden - your Apple Crumble looks fantastic. The almond flakes are toasted perfectly too. A lovely comforting dessert for an Autumn day!

Your crumble looks delicious Hidden , you are so good with stats i.e. Chia Seeds absorbing 10 their volume in water.

Love the ingredients.😀

Thanks Alicia, since going gluten free I've become interested in some food stats as it's good to know that you can use ground chia seeds as a thickener for gravies/sauces fruit and make things even healthier. 😁

It is very good to know how certain foods can replace others in cooking and baking.

Chia Seeds are so good for you, I really must make some overnight Chia Seed Porridge.😀

That looks great 👍

Not fussed on puddings generally but Crumble (and custard!!!) is my favourite.

[Hidden in reply to Carowood]

Thanks Carowood I agree you have to have custard with crumble and I do like a healthy pudding sometimes. 😀

Thank you Debs, I enjoyed it 😁

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator Vegan star in reply to Hidden]

I bet, do you make your own custard?

[Hidden in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Sometimes Debs but I also like bought soy custard, so it's the best of both of both worlds...😀

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator Vegan star in reply to Hidden]

A wise choice Jerry, that soy custard is very good : >
