Pear And Sultana Crumble Recipes

APPLE AND PEAR CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 C/ fan 170 F/ Mk 4. Butter a 1 litre ovenproof baking dish with 25g of the butter.
• Toss the apples and pears in the honey, 30g of the sugar, and the vanilla extract. Spoon into the baking dish and bake for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, rub together the remaining butter with the flour. Stir in the remaining sugar, and the Jordans Honey Country Crisp. Spoon this over the apples and pears in the dish, and bake for a further 30 minutes.
• To serve, whip the cream until thick, and stir in the cinnamon. Sweeten with extra honey if desired. Serve the crumble warm with the cream on the side.

BEST-EVER FRUIT CRUMBLE

Steps:

• You can't go wrong with an old-fashioned crumble. Everyone loves it, and it's lovely and easy!
• Preheat your oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6.
• Sift the flour into a bowl and add the sugar, salt and ginger.
• Cut the cold butter into chunks and rub it into the flour mix with your hands until you get a mixture that looks a bit like fine breadcrumbs. This is the crumble topping.
• To make the filling, boil the water and sugar together, then carefully drop in the pear chunks and simmer gently for a couple of minutes.
• Add the chopped ginger and the lime zest and juice to the pan and stir. Spoon the mixture into one large ovenproof dish or four small ones.
• Sprinkle the crumble topping over the top of the fruit, piling it high in the middle of the dish and leaving space at the edge for the caramel to bubble up.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the pears are cooked and bubbling and the crumble is golden on top. Serve with custard or a dollop of crème fraîche with lime zest grated over, if you like.
• Tip: This crumble will work well with apples instead, if you prefer.

APPLE AND PEAR CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Prepare fruit (peel, pit, whatever it takes). If large, cut into 1/4 thick slices.
• Toss in a bowl with lemon juice, sugar and raisins and a bit of nutmeg and cinnamon (I usually add allspice because I love it).
• Combine the flour, sugar, salt and spices.
• Cut in the butter and mix till mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. There should be no big chunks of butter left. (I usually do this with my hands - don't have a food processor).
• Sprinkle in the ice water, mix till the crumble mixture holds together and forms little clumps.
• Add the rolled oats and mix. If the mixture seems sticky, add more oats.
• Spread fruit evenly in a large glass or ceramic baking dish.
• Scatter topping evenly over the fruit, leaving some of it in larger chunks and some in fine crumbles.
• Bake the Crumble at 375 for about 40-45 minutes or until the top is crisp and brown and the juice is bubbling up around the edges.
• Serve it hot or warm, with ice cream, whipped cream, or all by itself.
