Family-Friendly Garden Berry Crumble: A Delicious Seasonal Recipe

A home cook, known as 'Maman in the Cuisine', has shared her delightful recipe for a Garden Berry Crumble, perfect for utilizing seasonal produce. The recipe begins with a generous 1.4kg of mixed garden berries, tossed with four tablespoons of caster sugar, two tablespoons of lemon juice, and two tablespoons of cornflour to thicken the juices. This vibrant berry mixture is then spread into a medium baking dish. For the crumble topping, 300g of plain flour is combined with 200g of cold, cubed unsalted butter, rubbed together until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. To this, 150g of demerara or soft brown sugar is stirred in, with an optional addition of oats or ground almonds for extra crunch. Notably, the video shows the cook's children enthusiastically assisting with the crumble preparation, making it a family affair. The prepared crumble topping is evenly sprinkled over the berry base. The dish is then baked at 180°C fan / 200°C / Gas 6 for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden and bubbling. Upon completion, the cook highlights the incredible aroma of the freshly baked crumble, inviting viewers to try this homemade goodness.
