Crumble

This isn't so much a recipes as hints and quantities. The crumble mixture can be stored in a jar in the fridge for a few days. Don't overfill the oven dish, otherwise the fruit boils out. If you're doing apple crumble, mix in some cinnamon to the crumble for a nice spicy taste.

Oven Temperatures

mediumish? moderate-moderately hot I guess.

Ingredients

• 100g or 4oz plain flour
• 50g or 2oz sugar (brown looks good and gives a richer taste)
• 50g or 2oz hard margarine
• fruit of your choice

Instructions

1. Rub the flour, sugar and margarine together.
2. Chop the fruit and mix in some sugar and water if required. You might want to pre-cook the fruit a bit in a pan. It depends on the fruit.
3. Place the fruit in an ovenproof dish.
4. Lay the crumble on top.
5. Cook in the oven till done.
