Serves: 8
320g puff pastry sheet
25g unsalted butter
50g caster sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
6 pink lady apples, peeled and cut into wedges
1 tbsp icing sugar
250ml vanilla custard
500ml vanilla ice cream
COULIS
¼ large lemon, zest and juice
150g raspberries
2 tsp icing sugar
CRUMBLE
40g plain flour
40g demerara sugar
40g unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
40g ground almonds
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Unroll the pastry, place on a baking sheet and prick all over with a fork. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until risen and golden; set aside.
2. Turn the oven up to 190°C, gas mark 5. Rub together the crumble ingredients until you have a rough texture. Spread out on a baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes. Meanwhile, put the coulis ingredients in a pan and warm over a gentle heat until the sugar has dissolved. Cool a little, then blend and strain through a sieve; set aside.
3. Melt the butter in a frying pan and add the sugar and cinnamon. Add the apples and fry for 8-10 minutes, until golden and just tender. Set aside and keep warm.
4. Preheat the grill to high. Roughly cut the pastry into 16 squares, dust with icing sugar and grill for 1-2 minutes. Divide the apples between 8 plates, then spoon over some of the custard and coulis. Top with two squares of pastry and a scattering of the crumble. Add a spoonful of ice cream and dust with icing sugar, if liked.
