Ingredients
  

Streusel mix for base and topping

  • 4 cups 600g PPP flour
  • 11/3 cups 295g Caster sugar
  • 375 g Unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup 110g Slivered almonds
  • 11/2 tsp Mixed spice
  • ½ tsp Ground cinnamon

Fruit Filling

  • 1.2 Kg Granny Smith apples peeled cored and diced
  • 410 g Fruit mince
  • 50 g Unsalted butter
  • ¾ 135g Brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp Ground All spice
  • 2 ½ tsp Mixed spice
  • ¼ tsp Ground nutmeg
  • Zest of one lemon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 20cm x 30cm slice tin, line with non-stick baking paper.
  • Place the flour, sugar and butter in a large bowl and mix well to combine. Remove half (635g) of the streusel mix into the lined baking tray. Press with the back of a spoon to form an even base, then refrigerate for 10 minutes. Then bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside.
  • To make the filling, place the butter, apples, sugar, nutmeg, all spice and mixed spice into a large saucepan with a lid, over a high heat and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for 3 minutes or until the apples are soft. Drain off any liquid then add the fruit mince and the lemon zest to the cooked apple.
  • To the remaining streusel mix add the almonds, mixed spice and cinnamon, mix until well combined.
  • Spoon the filling evenly over the base. Sprinkle the streusel mix over the filling.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool in the tin on a wire rack. Once cool cut into slices.
