harrycatcat1 Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 Chap gave me some rhubarb yesterday so I thought that I'd knock a crumble together. Unfortunately I could have done with twice as much crumble but never mind "must do better" next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKD Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 My favourite type of crumble is the rhubarb one 😋😃 Best done in an enamel tin or a heavy ceramic dish, and have the juices ooze up around the sides creating a sort of toffee,,,, IMHO 😁😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbob Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 I take the easy option with rhubarb and apples .gooseberry's etc fruit in casserole dish 2/4 spoonful's of sugar and a packet of shop bought topping on top and pop in the oven dead easy no fuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussexboy Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 Crumble is always a fight in our house. Me and my daughter like a thick crumble topping, the Mrs likes a thin topping. After some discussion she now makes it thicker on one side. Trouble is now it is difficult to cook just right so as not to burn her side before ours is cooked. Plenty of oats in the crumble mix seems to help with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
