Scale
- 4.5 oz (130 g) fresh gooseberries, halved
- 1 small golden apple, diced (about 4 oz (113 g))
- 0.5 cups (75 g) fresh raspberries
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- Pinch of ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cups (20 g) rolled oats
- 0.25 cups (40 g) almonds, processed into coarse meal
- 0.25 cups (40 g) whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.125 cups (40 g) plain yogurt
- 1 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 392°F (200°C). Lightly grease two small ramekins or a medium-sized baking dish with butter. Set them aside.
- For the Fruit Filling:
- Wash the gooseberries, halve them, and remove any stems. Dice the apple into small, evenly sized cubes. In a large bowl, gently toss together the gooseberries, apple, raspberries, brown sugar, and a pinch of cinnamon. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
- For the Crumble Topping:
- In a food processor, pulse the almonds until they are ground into a coarse meal. Alternatively, chop them finely by hand. In a separate bowl, combine the ground almonds, rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Slowly add the yogurt to the dry ingredients, mixing with a fork until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. If the crumble seems too dry, add more yogurt or a tablespoon of melted butter.
- For the Assemble the Crumble:
- Divide the fruit filling evenly between your prepared ramekins or baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble mixture generously over the fruit, ensuring it covers the filling completely.
- For Baking:
- Place the ramekins or baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the crumble topping turns golden brown and crisp. The fruit should be bubbly.
- For Cooling and Serving:
- Let the crumbles cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve as is, or pair with a dollop of vanilla ice cream or a spoonful of crème fraîche.
Notes
- If gooseberries are unavailable, substitute with a tart berry like blackcurrants or cranberries.
- For a richer crumble, use all whole wheat flour in the topping.
- To make ahead, prepare the crumble topping and fruit filling separately; combine and bake just before serving.
