the perfect crumble
42 Answers
the only nice thing my mum can cook is a fruit crumble, but even that goes slightly wrong.
Even though we don't add juice to it, juice always bubles over the top . Also the crumble topping doesn't cook properly and is still doughy even when the very top is starting to burn, but if we made it realy thin, then even more juice would spew out of the top, so we can't win.
How do we solve thewse two problems?

Mollykins, my mum can't cook, my grandparents couldn't cook, I learned fast it was a survival thing, who cares if you dirty lots of pans its part of the process while you are working out what works best for each dish,
I put ground almonds in my crumble mix too.... especially good with peach and plum crumbles And the juice and sugar syrup should bubble through and caramelise in places,,, I think perhaps you try to be too perfect.... good enough is usually good enough...

hmm good idea rowan, plus my dad doesn't like almonds.
He normally goes in the fridge, shoves half of it in his mouth, then complains about it, rather than asking for a piece, taking a small spoonful and not wasting half of it. But if it had almonds in it, he wouldn't eat it, we're not being selfish but he shoves it in his mouth every time and every time complains that the fruit is too sharp.
