1 Preheat oven to 160°C/325°F. Grease and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2 Make crumble topping.

3 Core unpeeled apples about three-quarters of the way down from stem end, making the hole 4cm (1½ inches) in diameter. Use a small sharp knife to score around the centre of each apple. Make a small deep cut in the base of each apple.

4 Pack combined berries, rind and sugar firmly into apples; top with crumble topping. Place apples on tray. Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes or until apples are just tender.

Crumble topping – Place ingredients in a small bowl. Rub the mixture together with your fingers until well combined.

Dietitian Notes / Recipe Tips

Use your favourite variety of apple; we used pink lady as they have a sweet flavour that marries well with the raspberries.
