Cherry Crumble
Type: Desserts and Baked Goods
Cherries are just one fruit you can use in this deliciously versatile dessert.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 35 minutes
Serves: Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 8 tbsp (1 stick) butter, cut into 1/2in (1cm) cubes
- 11/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup ground almonds
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
For the filling
- 11/4lb (550g) ripe cherries, pitted
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp apple juice
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). In a bowl, rub the butter into the flour and ground almonds with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Stir in the sugar. Place the cherries in a 11/2 quart (2 liter) dish and sprinkle with the sugar and apple juice. Scatter the crumble mixture over the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Allow the crumble to cool completely, then wrap in foil, and freeze.
- To serve, defrost in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat uncovered in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven for 25 minutes or until bubbly-hot.
- Instead of cherries, use the same quantity of chopped apples, soft stone fruit, or berries.
- Cheat...Use three 15oz (425g) cans of cherries, or 1lb frozen pitted cherries, thawed.
