This is my favourite dessert for this weekend, so I saved it for Valentine’s Day. It’s a Swedish apple pie made with crumble dough which is really delicious. And called crumble dough for the obvious reason: It’s crumbly.

It requires a bit of work but all in all this shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes.

Here’s what we need:

• 4-5 apples
• ½ cup sugar
• ½ cup gluten free flour (you can use regular flour too, same amount!)
• 2 oz of butter

Chop up the apples and put them in a greased up pan. Peeled apples are preferable. Mix the flour and the sugar together and pour the mix evenly over the apples. Cut up the butter in really thin leaves and cover the whole pan with almost no space in between the butter leaves. You can mix the butter into the sugar/flour mix before you pour it over the apples, but it’s not fun trying to mix 2 oz of butter into a cup mixture.

Put into the oven at 375F for about 25 minutes, until the top of the pie is golden brown and the butter and sugars has mixed together so there is no more floury parts. If after 25 minutes there still is, just add a tiny bit of butter on top of the floury areas.

When baked it will look crumbly and be a bit crunchy, sweet and fruity. Serve with vanilla custard. I used Marsan-sauce, a Swedish style vanilla custard that you can find at IKEA. Hey, you can even serve it with Zabaglione, it’s a custard too!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!
