Description

This is a twist on the classic British dessert Apple Crumble. It’s perfect for a cold winter day!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE PEACH MIXTURE:
  • 6  Firm Ripe Pears
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter
  • 3 Tablespoons Sultanas
  • 2 Tablespoons Caster Sugar
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Cornflour
  • 1 Tablespoon Rum Or Brandy
  • Fresh Cream Or Custard, To Serve
  • FOR THE CRUMBLE:
  • 6 ounces, weight Plain Or All Purpose Flour
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 4 Tablespoons Butter
  • 2 ounces, weight Caster Sugar

Preparation

Heat the oven to 190°C / 400°F / Gas mark 6.

Peel the pears and cut into quarters, removing the cores.

Melt the butter in a large pan over a medium heat. Cook the pears in the butter for 5 minutes or until slightly softened. Sprinkle over the sultanas, sugar, cinnamon, cornflour and rum or brandy. Stir to coat.
Place in a shallow ovenproof dish and set aside.

To make the crumble, sift the flour and the salt into a bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and rub into the flour using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar then rub in a little more so that the mixture begins to form clumps. Sprinkle over the pear mixture and cook in the oven for 30-40 minutes until lightly browned on top.

Serve warm with fresh cream or custard.
