Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped apricots, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the apricots and let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter and use your fingers to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Transfer the apricot mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping generously over the apricots, ensuring they are completely covered.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the apricots are soft and bubbling.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve warm, topped with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
Tips
- For a nutty twist, consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans to the crumble mixture.
- You can substitute fresh apricots with canned apricots, but reduce the sugar since they are often packed in syrup.
- Feel free to experiment with spices; nutmeg or ginger can add a delightful kick to the crumble.
