Instructions
In a bowl mix the chopped apples, mincemeat, cinnamon and sugar together. Transfer to a oven proof dish about 7½ x 11 inches (19 x 28 cm) and about 4.5cm deep.
For the crumble chop the nuts in a food processor, alternatively place them in a plastic bags and bash them with a rolling pin until they are in small pieces. Preheat the oven to 200c/180c fan/400F/Gas 6.
Add the flour, butter, cinnamon and sugar in a electric mix with a paddle mixer and mix until it resemble crumbs but don't over mix. Add the nut, mix and pour over the fruit mix.
Distribute the mixture evenly across the dish, ensuring it reaches all corners. Using your palms, firmly compress the entire surface. The more compact you make it, the crunchier the final result will be.
Bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Leave to rest for 10 minutes and serve with custard or cream.
