Background
I think my absolute favourite English pudding is a crumble. It's not the most attractive of desserts but ticks all the other boxes: yummy, Β cheap, easy to make and can be adjusted to different diets! ThisΒ peach crumble is a perfect example how you can reduce sugar, use wholesome flour and still have a delicious Β and healthy dessert! Perfect pudding after a Sunday Roast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup wholemeal flour
- β cup brown rice flakes (optional)
- Β½ cup unrefined cane sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- β cup of diced butter or dairy-free spread
- β cup chopped walnuts
- 10 large peaches
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
- β cup raisins
- Fresh nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Stone the peaches then roughly slice their flesh.
- Add the butter, flour baking powder and sugar in a food processor and blend until you get a mixture resembling breadcrumbs (or just use your fingers!).
- Transfer it to a mixing bowl, add rice flakes and the walnuts.
- In an ovenproof dish arrange the peach slices, pour over the lemon juice & maple syrup, sprinkle over it the raisins and grate a little nutmeg on top.
- Evenly cover the fruit with the crumbs, slightly pressing down with the base of the spoon.
- Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes. Before serving, let it rest for about10 minutes - the hot fruit can burn your mouth!
- Serve it warm with custard or ice-cream!
Tips
- You can use ½ cup of porridge oats and ½ cup of whole-wheat flour. If gluten is a problem for you, then use gluten-free flour mixture or almond flour, rice flour, buckwheat flour etc.
- Instead of maple syrup you can use honey or agave syrup too!
