Apple & Raspberry Fool
By Chef Edward Hayden
Method
- For the Compote
- Place all the apples, sugar and water together in a medium saucepan and bring to the boil
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until they just begin to soften. Do not allow the mixture to become smooth-it is nice to have lumps of fruit still contained. At this stage mix in the fresh raspberries.
- Allow to cool completely. For the Granola
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas Mark 4
- Spread the porridge oats, flaked almonds and hazelnuts onto a flat baking sheet. Scatter the demerara sugar over the top of the oat mixture. Drizzle with the honey and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crisp. About 5 minutes before the granola is cooked add in the sultanas and mixed fruit and return to the oven (they will burn if in too long).
- Remove from the oven, allow the granola to go completely cold and store in an airtight container until required. To Assemble the Fool
- Mix the cooled apple and raspberry compote into the yogurt. Do not mix it in entirely. It looks more visually impressive to obtain a marbled effect
- Sweeten with the honey if you desire. Alternatively layer the fruit compote up with the yogurt
- Divide the fool mixture between 6 large serving glasses
- Sprinkle a thin layer of the toasted granola on the top and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.
