Method

1.

Preheat oven to 180C. Lightly grease and line a 18 x 28cm slice pan with baking paper.

2.

In a bowl, combine flour, sugar and coconut. Blend in butter. Press mixture firmly into prepared pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly browned. Cool.

3.

To make filling, spread apples evenly over base. Whisk together cream, eggs and sugar. Pour over apples. Bake for 20-25 minutes until firm. 

4.

To make topping, in a small bowl, combine all ingredients. Sprinkle evenly over slice. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden. Cool in pan. Dust with icing sugar before cutting into squares. 

Top tip!

If preferred, use 1 sheet of shortcrust pastry for the base. Prick the base with a fork and bake for 10 minutes before covering with filling.
