Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup plus 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 pounds plums, halved, pitted, cut into wedges
1 tablespoon plum brandy or Port
Vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt

Steps:

  • Mix flour, oats, 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add butter and rub with fingertips until mixture forms coarse meal. Press with fingertips until mixture begins to form moist clumps. (Crumb topping can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Toss plums, remaining 1/2 cup sugar and brandy in medium bowl. Transfer to 9-inch deep-dish pie dish. Sprinkle crumb topping over. Bake until fruit bubbles and topping browns, about 1 hour. Cool slightly. Serve with ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, juicy plums for the best flavor. If your plums are not ripe, you can roast them in the oven for a few minutes to bring out their sweetness.
  • Don't overwork the crumble topping. You want it to be crumbly, not doughy.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can make the crumble topping by hand. Just use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Bake the crumble until the topping is golden brown and the plums are bubbling.
  • Let the crumble cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the crumble with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Plum crumble is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and tart filling and crispy crumble topping, it's the perfect way to use up summer plums. So next time you're looking for a simple yet delicious dessert, give this plum crumble recipe a try.
