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.
