Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 75 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams unsalted butter, cold and diced
- 75 grams rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 800 grams mixed fresh fruit (such as apples, berries, or pears)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoon fine salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and fine salt.
Add the cold, diced unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Mix in the rolled oats and vanilla extract, and set the crumble topping aside.
Wash, core, and slice the fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces, then place them into a medium baking dish (about 23 cm or 9 inches square).
Sprinkle the lemon juice, cinnamon, and cornstarch over the fruit and toss gently to coat evenly.
Distribute the crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
