Ingredients
  

  • 1 small apple, diced into 1/4-inch pieces
  • 1/2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, toss the diced apple with 1/2 tablespoon flour, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, pinch of nutmeg, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon softened butter until evenly coated.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine 1 tablespoon flour, oats, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold tablespoon of butter with a fork or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Transfer the apple mixture to a microwave-safe mug or ramekin. Sprinkle the crumble evenly on top. Microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes 30 seconds, until the apples are tender and the topping is set. Let it rest for 1 minute.
  4. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve immediately.

Notes

The mug will be very hot after microwaving, so handle it with an oven mitt or a kitchen towel.
