Decore the apples and place on a plate, fill the middles with caster sugar (1tbsp in each) and place in the microwave. In a 750W microwave, the apples will soften after around 8-9 mins, for a 650W you will need it in for slightly longer.
-
Once the apples have softened, remove from the microwave and scoop the soft flesh from out of the skin into a bowl along with any sugar that has run onto the plate.
-
Place the apples into an oven proof dish and let the fruit go cold for around an hour.
-
To make the crumble, in a bowl place the flour, butter and sugar and rub together with your hands until you get a crumbly consistency, place this on top of the fruit and place in the oven for 30 mins on gas mark 5/190c until crumble is browned.
Serve with custard (dairy free/vegan alternative if required) or ice cream!
