Autumn calls for warm desserts, and one of my favourite desserts to make is apple crumble. Crumble is one of those desserts you can put together easily. All it takes is some sliced spiced apples and a topping made with oats, flour, sugar and butter.

Start off your crumble with the spiced apple filling. Sliced granny smith apples, lemon juice (to stop the apples from browning) , cinnamon and brown sugar.  I love Granny Smiths for their their tartness and how well they hold up very under heat.

The crumble topping is made with oats, flour, demerara sugar and butter. I would suggest taking the butter out of the fridge about half an hour before required.  It will give the butter time to soften and easier to mix in. I use demerara sugar for the crunch it adds to the crumble. If you haven’t got any, brown sugar is a wonderful substitute.

Pile the crumble topping on top of spiced apples.

And bake until apple softens and crumble is golden brown.

Now you can begin the incredible cognac caramel sauce. It is an easy sauce to make, no thermometer required and contains only one fancy ingredient. All it takes to make this sauce is brown sugar, double cream, butter, salt and COGNAC!! Best of all you can have warm , sweet , rich , buttery boozy caramel sauce ready in 6 minutes. I could just drink this sauce with a straw. The cognac caramel sauce is also perfect for pouring over ice cream, lattes, milkshakes or cake.

And it compliments the oaty apple crumble perfectly.

Place the flour, oats and sugar in a bowl and mix well. Cut the butter into small cubes and add this to the oats and flour. Mix with your fingertips until it resembles an even crumb texture.

Turn up the heat to high and bring sauce to a boil, should take about a minute. Then reduce the heat and leave to simmer for 4 more minutes, stirring frequently.

Remove pan from heat and add the cognac, stirring constantly, as the cognac will cause the caramel sauce to bubble back up.
