A wonderful oat and nut crumble with peaches, plums, nectarines or apricots… Perfect for autumn — packed with nuts, cinnamon and the addition of oats, making it not only more flavourful but a little more wholesome too. Quick to prepare, which is one of the best things about any crumble. It’s one of my favourite fruit desserts.
Ingredients for the crumble:
- 115 g butter, melted
- ½ cup soft light brown sugar
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 cup oats
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- a pinch of salt
- ½ cup of pecans or walnuts, roughly chopped
Add the melted butter to the remaining ingredients and rub together with a fork or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Ingredients for the fruit filling:
- 500 g plums
- 500 g peaches or nectarines
- 300 g apricots
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1.5 Tbsp potato starch
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- a pinch of nutmeg
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
Stone the fruit and cut into thick slices, then mix with the remaining filling ingredients.
Butter a 23 × 33 cm baking dish. Spoon in the fruit mixture and spread it out evenly, then scatter the crumble over the top.
Bake at 180°C for about 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling underneath. Remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly.
Serve warm, if you like, with vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy!
