Preheat the oven to 190 °C. Core the apples, cut them into 2 cm cubes, mix with the berries, one-third of the sugar, and cinnamon, and place in a baking dish. For the crumble, mix the rolled oats, flour, and remaining sugar, add the cold butter in cubes, and rub with your fingers until you have large, moist crumbs. Scatter the crumble evenly over the fruit without pressing it down. Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the top is browned and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges. Let stand for 10 minutes and serve warm — on its own or with a spoonful of yogurt.
