I want to do a hot pudding when the pil come for sunday lunch next week, but it needs to be one my diabetic DH can eat as well.
I've found this, but I don't really want to buy a whole jar of apricot jam to just use 1 tsp, and probably will struggle to find a sugar free one anyway. Can anyone think of something else that might do?
I have reduced sugar no peel marmalade already.
Any other recipe suggestions would be also be appreciated.
Oaty Apple Crumble
Ingredients:
100g (3.5oz) plain flour
100g (3.5oz) butter
Three tbsp granulated sweetener
50g (2oz) oats
25g (1oz) raisins
25g (1oz) ground almonds
750g (1.75lb) sweet apples
One tsp sugar free apricot jam
One lemon
Method:
Preheat your oven to 200 deg C/400 deg F/gas mark six. Once again, rub together your flour, butter and granulated sweetener together in a large bowl. Ensure you have worked in all the lumps of butter. Add your oats, raisins, cinnamon and ground almonds. Stir in well. Tip your mixture out on to a baking sheet and place in the oven for just five minutes to crisp off.
Then wash, core and peel your apples. Place in a medium pan with just enough water in to cover the apples. Bring to the boil and allow to simmer for about five minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in your apricot jam. Squeeze your lemon and add the juice.
Then take a large pie dish and pour the hot fruit mixture into it. Take your crumble topping and carefully sprinkle over the top. Make sure you cover all the fruit and that you?ve got a good inch or so of crumble. Place in the centre of the oven and bake until golden brown on top with bubbling fruit below.
