Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar, packed
- 115 grams unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 75 grams rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir together until well incorporated.
Add the chilled and diced butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingertips, a pastry cutter, or a fork, blend the butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Some small pea-sized pieces of butter should still be visible.
Gently fold in the rolled oats, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) if using the crumble topping immediately.
Spread the prepared crumble topping evenly over your desired fruit filling in a baking dish.
Bake the assembled dish in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. The crumble topping will set a bit more as it cools, providing a perfect texture to accompany your favorite fruit dessert.
