This apple and rhubarb crumble provides the perfect balance between sweet and tangy. A delicious crumble packed full of juicy apples and rhubarb which are stewed together, then topped with a crispy topping made up of oats. The beauty of fruit crumbles is that you can mix up the fruit and use whatever is in season, or try your hand at some foraging and pick some blackberries when they're in season and add them to a crumble.
