Apple Crumble with Halva Topping
Plain sesame halva makes a delicious topping for fruit crumbles or crisps. There is no need for any additional sugar or butter since halva is already sweet and contains fat. The topping will be soft after baking but gets nicely crunchy as it cools so it's best served after cooling. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
