I am making apple crumble for pudding tomorrow (it's in the freezer at the moment without the topping). I haven't made it since my sons left home over 40 years ago. I am following Mary Berry's recipe but it seems as if it could be too sweet. Could I add a little lemon juice to make this less sweet.

I ue the same apple crumble recipe I learned at school. 6oz flour, 4 oz butter or marge, 1 oz sugar. Just throw a bit of sugar in the fruit if I think it needs it. Always works.

Meant 2 oz sugar.

jocork you can just melt the butter, let it cool a bit, and stir the dried ingredients into it. Much faster, and I think it’s a nicer texture too.

I always replace half the flour with other, more interesting, grains.

I like to add a little ginger in with the rhubarb, will also try NannyKnees tip!
