This plum crumble is oozing with sweet, delicious fruit with a gentle spice flavor. A wonderful and easy (if a little indulgent) dessert.

Ingredients
For crumble topping
- ½ cup all purpose flour plain flour
- ¼ cup almond flour (also called ground almonds)
- 3 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3 tablespoon unsalted butter cold, cut in small pieces
For fruit base
- 1 lb plums
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon allspice
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch corn flour
- ½ lemon zest (ie from ½ lemon)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F/190C.
- Place the flour, almond flour and sugar in a bowl and mix together. Add the small pieces of butter and rub them into the flour mixture to give you a coarse crumb mixture. You can also cut them in with a pastry cutter but I find by hand easier.
- Halve the plums, remove the stones then dice the plums into small bite-sized pieces. Place them in a baking dish (approx 11-12in x 7-8in (28-30cm x 18-20cm) and at least 1 in (2.5cm) deep).
- Add the sugar, cinnamon, allspice, ginger and cornstarch to the plums and mix through so they are evenly coated. Add the grated lemon zest and juice and stir to mix evenly. Even out the plums to form a relatively flat layer in the dish.
- Top the plums with the crumble mixture and spread it to the sides so that it covers all of the fruit. Bake for approximately 35 - 45 minutes until it's lightly brown on top. You may well have some fruit juices bubbling through.
- Serve warm, but take care as the fruit will be really hot just out the oven (let it cool a few minutes). Goes well with cream/creme fraiche or ice cream.
