1. Peel the skin from the apples,  I then use an apple chopper & corer but if you don't have one just cut up the apples into pieces. Put them into a pie dish.
2. Add the water & sprinkle over cinnamon & a tablespoon of caster sugar.
3. In a bowl mix the 2 types of flour. Then cut the butter into small pieces & add to the bowl.  Then rub the butter into the flour using your hands until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
4. Mix in soft brown sugar again using your hands. 
5. Sprinkle the mixture over the apple in the pie dish. Use a fork to smooth it out. 
6. Bake the crumble for around 45 mins until the top of the crumble is golden & the apple is soft. 
7. Serve with either custard, cream or ice cream.
