Ingredients

For the fruit filling

650 g (4 cups) mixed frozen berries
130 g (⅗ cups) demerara or caster sugar
30 g (¼ cups) plain flour

For the topping

225 g (1 5/7 cups) plain flour
225 g (1 cups) butter, cold cut into cubes
125 g (1 ½ cups) rolled oats, not quick cooking
250 g (1 ⅕ cups) demerara or caster sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 160ºC.
Stir the fruit with the demerara sugar and the flour. The flour is what helps to thicken all the fruit juice as the crumble bakes. *See notes on using fresh fruit
Simply add the oats, butter, sugar and flour to a food processor and pulse until a thick crumble forms. *See notes
Place the fruit in an oven safe dish. About a 2l capacity is the size you’ll need. Once the fruit is evenly spread over the dish, place the crumble on top to cover the fruit. This recipe makes a lot of crumble topping so, you can freeze some of it for making crumble at a later date.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until the fruit is soft and juicy and the crumble topping is golden and crisp. Let cool for a few minutes before topping with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Add any spices or nuts to the crumble topping while mixing it and to the fruit filling before baking.
If the topping is too dry add a little more butter to the topping. You can also add a tablespoon or two of milk or cream.
