Step-by-Step Instructions for Single-Serving Apple Crumble Recipe
  1. Preheat your toaster oven to 350°F (175°C). Core and chop one Jazz or Honeycrisp apple into small cubes. In a ramekin, mix the apple pieces with melted butter, raw sugar, cinnamon, and a splash of lemon juice until well-coated.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine flour, raw sugar, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and mix until you achieve a crumbly texture.
  3. Spoon the crumble mixture over the apple filling in your ramekin, ensuring the topping forms clumps.
  4. Place the ramekin in your preheated toaster oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, watching for a golden-brown top.
  5. Once baked, allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream.
