2. Add the butter. Rub the butter and flour together with your fingertips (or pastry cutter) until they look like coarse crumbs. Stir in the sugar, seeds and oats.
3. Remove the skin from the apple and cut them into quarters. Then careful remove the core and slice the fruits into bite-sized pieces.
4. Put the pieces of apple into an ovenproof dish (900ml/ 2 pint). Add the blueberries and pour over the apple juice. Sprinkle some sugar evenly over the top.
5. Spoon over the topping in an even layer then put the dish in the oven. Cook for 35 minutes until the top is crisp and beginning to brown.

Notes:

1. You can make this oaty crumble using ramekins instead of ovenproof dish.
2. Try different variety of seasonal fruit such as strawberries, nectarines, peaches, plums, blackberries or pears.
