Elevate winter crumble with fresh pear and tangy rhubarb.
Ingredients:
  • 1kg pears, ripe but firm
  • 40.00 gm caster sugar
  • 1 bunch rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 2cm lengths
  • 62.50 ml slivered almonds
  • 187.50 ml plain flour
  • 75g cold butter, chopped
  • 1.25 gm ground cinnamon
  • 59.40 gm Brand Brown Sugar
  • 16.25 gm shredded coconut
  • Vanilla flavoured pouring custard, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan-forced).
  • Prepare the pears by peeling, quartering, and coring them, then roughly chopping. Place them in a large, deep frying pan and sprinkle with caster sugar. Add 1 tbsp of water. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 3 mins until the pears are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Mix in the rhubarb and stir gently. Cook for 5 mins, stirring occasionally, until tender. Drain and let it cool slightly. Transfer the fruit into a 4-5 cup ovenproof dish.
  • Spread almonds on an oven tray and bake until lightly golden. Cool. Combine flour, butter, cinnamon, sugar, coconut, and roasted almonds in a food processor. Pulse in short bursts until mixture is crumbly.
  • Top the pear and rhubarb with the topping and bake until beautifully golden brown, for about 20-25 minutes. Enjoy with a side of creamy custard.
