Apple Crumble

For a change, let's talk about food. And, I have a feeling that I'm going to over-do it :)
I love food and so do many of you. But, for the sake of health and (more importantly) figure consciousness, I have to show some restraint. It's tough!
I'm not a great cook, let-alone a cook! But, if something is easy to mix up in the kitchen, I might just give it a twist. Here's a recipe that I learnt from my mom. It's easy-breazy, Apple Crumble. If a chef's reading this and you go, "Hey, that's not Apple Crumble!", go easy on me, will you? This is my Apple Crumble.










What you need
  • Apples
  • Strawberries
  • Banana
  • Milk Maid
  • Sweet Bread
  • Milk
  • Almond
  • Raisins
  • Cardamom
Try with 4 apples and 1 can of Milk Maid. Add other ingredients as you wish.

How to make this
  • In a heated pan, add two spoons of butter. 
  • Add crushed almonds, raisins, cardamom and stir it till they brown a little. 
  • Make piece of bread and add them to the pan. Let it brown a little.
  • Add the apples and strawberries which must have been washed and cut. I like to take the peal off the apple. Toss it around and put the lid on it for a minute or two. 
  • Add the banana slices and mix around. 
  • Open the delicious can of Milk Maid and pour it in. I usually stop when the can is half empty. You can do less or more depending on how many calories you want to accumulate. 
  • Add a little boiled milk to bring the mixture to a consistency that suits you. 
  • Keep stirring it and mix it all together. 
  • After a few more minutes, turn the heat off.
Serving it hot is appreciated more. Save it in the fridge for one more day and microwave it. Children will love it and many easy-to-please adults will love it too. I add no sugar to this because Milk Maid and the fruits have enough of that.
If you've tried it, leave a comment here on the blog or on Facebook and tell us if it was a disaster or a clean sweep. :)
