Apricot Crumble

DifficultyBeginner

I used apricots from the Odd Bunch at Woolies to make this crumble because a crumble doesn't really care about how good your apricots look! So much of perfectly delicious produce is simply wasted because it doesn't quite look right, but initiatives like the Odd Bunch are a fantastic way to reduce that. In this crumble the apricots are paired with lime and wait for it... cardamom! Really? Yes trust me - it is such a winning combination. Or even better - make the recipe and try for yourself.
