This is one of my favourite rhubarb crumble. A delicious combination of flavours and the pink colour of the easy rhubarb crumble looks so attractive. This crumble recipe also very quick and easy to prepare. Serve with custard or ice-cream.

A really good crumble recipe bursting with fruit is comfort food at its best. Other good fruit fillings are nectarine, apple crumble, blackberry and apple crumble, and raspberry crumble. Sprinkling ground almonds over the base of the dish soaks up some of the excess liquid from the fruit so that the topping doesn’t become soggy.

Rhubarb Crumble Ingredients

400g (14 oz) rhubarb
100g (4 oz) strawberries
4 tbsp caster sugar
3 tbsp ground almonds

Crumble Topping
150g (5 oz) plain flour
75g (3 oz) demerera sugar
a generous pinch of salt
100g (4 oz) cold butter, cut into pieces
50g (2 oz) ground almonds

 

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 200C / 400F. To make the topping, mix the flour together with the sugar and salt in a bowl and rub in the butter using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Mix in the ground almonds.

Cut the rhubarb into small pieces not larger than half an inch and halve the strawberries. Sprinkle the ground almonds over the base of a suitable ovenproof dish ( a round pyrex dish with a 17cm/7in diameter is good). Mix the rhubarb and strawberries together with the sugar and spoon into the dish.

Cover the fruit with the crumble topping and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.
