Critical Success Points

  • Achieving a coarse‑sand texture for the crust dough without over‑mixing.
  • Caramelizing the apples until they are golden but not burnt.
  • Ensuring the crumble remains coarse; over‑working creates a dough instead of a crumbly topping.
  • Baking until the crumble is golden – under‑baking leaves it soggy, over‑baking makes it bitter.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot pans and oven with oven mitts to avoid burns.
  • Caramelized sugar is extremely hot; stir carefully and keep children away.
  • Use a sharp knife for peeling and cutting apples to prevent slips.
