Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (top and bottom heat). Wash the fruit, cut it into wedges or cubes if necessary, and place it in a baking dish.

Put flour, baking powder and sugar into a bowl and mix with the melted butter to form a crumbly streusel dough.

Distribute the crumble evenly over the fruit. Bake in the oven at 200°C for 35 to 45 minutes, until the crumble is golden brown and crispy.

Serve crumble warm or hot. It goes well with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or Greek yogurt.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Your Crumble Topping 🥐
Mix butter, flour, sugar, and baking powder, then toast the mixture in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes before sprinkling over fruit to develop deeper, nuttier flavors and ensure a crispier texture.
Use Cold Butter for Maximum Crunch 🧈
Cut cold butter into small cubes and work it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs; this creates distinct, crispy clusters rather than a dense topping.
Macerate Your Fruit First 🍓
Toss your fruit with a tablespoon of sugar and let it sit for 5-10 minutes before adding to the baking dish to release natural juices, intensifying flavor and preventing a dry crumble.
Layer Strategically for Even Texture 📚
Spread fruit evenly and don't pack it down, then distribute crumble topping in an even layer without pressing—this allows heat to circulate properly and creates uniform crispiness throughout.
Cool Slightly Before Serving ⏱️
Let the crumble rest for 5 minutes after baking so the fruit filling sets slightly, preventing it from being runny while the topping remains at peak crispness.
