  • Total time: 45 min
  • Serves 6
  • Very easy

Ingredients

Number of people: Serves 6

  • ২ apples
  • ২ pears
  • ৮০ g butter
  • ৮০ g sugar
  • ১২০ g flour
  • ১ tsp cinnamon

Preparation stepsTotal time: 45 min

  1. Fruit5 min

    Peel and cut into cubes. Put them in a dish with the cinnamon. Weigh everything first, then cut pieces of the same size so they cook evenly. Keep the trimmings aside until the end, in case you need to adjust. Amount for this step: 1 tsp cinnamon.

  2. Topping5 min

    Rub the butter, sugar and flour together with your fingertips. Dust the work surface lightly with flour. If the dough sticks, ten minutes in the fridge firms it up better than extra flour.

  3. Cover5 min

    Scatter the crumble over the fruit. Count the time from when you start, and only move on once you get the result described.

  4. Bake30 min

    30 minutes at 180°C. Preheat the oven to the temperature given, with the rack in the middle. Only open the door if the recipe says so: the dish is ready when it is golden and the time is up.
