Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 750 grams plums
- 50 grams granulated sugar (for filling)
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for filling)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 120 grams all-purpose flour (for crumble topping)
- 50 grams rolled oats
- 75 grams brown sugar
- 100 grams unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- to taste vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish.
Wash and pit the plums, then cut them into quarters or eighths, depending on their size.
In a large bowl, combine the plums with the granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of flour, lemon juice, and cinnamon (if using). Stir until the plums are well-coated.
Transfer the plum mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another bowl, prepare the crumble topping by mixing the flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the crumble mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the plum filling, ensuring all the fruit is covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the plum filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
