Servings
Equipment
A quality blender will make it easier to combine the oats, seeds, salt, and butter quickly and evenly. If you don't have a blender, a food processor will also work.
A medium-sized baking dish is essential for layering the ingredients. Make sure it is oven-safe.
Set the oven to 180°C (350°F) before you begin assembling your crumble to save time.
A spatula is handy for spreading the crumble mixture evenly over the plums.
Variations
Faq
- How do I prevent my crumble from becoming too soggy?
Make sure to layer the ingredients properly and avoid using overly ripe fruits with too much juice. A pinch of cornstarch mixed with the fruit can also help absorb excess moisture.
