    What is a crumble dessert?

    A crumble is basically any juicy fruit topped with buttery flour (and oats), and baked until golden and crispy. Well, I know it needs some time in the oven for the topping to crisp up. But other than that, you just mix the fresh or canned fruit with sugar, vanilla extract, cover them with the flour, butter and oats topping, and job done.

    No complicated fillings, no cream that needs chilling beforehand, no chocolate melting, etc It is said that the dessert actually became famous in the UK during WW2, when food rationing was in place, and the dessert did not need too many expensive ingredients to make. Oats are optional, but I prefer them for an extra crispy crumble.

    Since the canned peaches are already juicy, they don't need to be cooked beforehand, they can go straight in the oven dish to be topped.

    How to make a peach crumble with canned fruit

    For this easy crumble we only need a few ingredients: flour, butter, oats, canned peaches and vanilla extract. If you wish to add any other canned fruit, they can be added to without pre-cooking them.

    Overhead shoot of ingredients needed for canned peach crumble

    I used 2 large tins of peaches, just because the oven dish I had was pretty large, so use as much as you dish allow you. To make the topping:

    • melt the butter
    • sift the flour and add it to a large bowl together with the oats
    • add the butter and use a spatula to mix everything
    • the sugar and vanilla extract can go in too
    • give everything a good mix, and job done
    • transfer the drained peaches into an oven-proof dish, top with the oat mixture
    • bake in the preheated oven at 190 degrees Celsius (375 Fahrenheit) for 35-40 minutes until golden and bubbling hot

    Canned or fresh fruit?

    The best thing about using canned fruit is that they are already sweet and have the perfect texture. If peaches are in season, and are fully ripen and juicy, they can be used too, either on their own or combined with canned ones.

    It's really a very simple recipe, and you can tweak it the way you like, there is no right or wrong. Just use whatever you have in your pantry, don't worry about swapping ingredients, as long as the consistency is not changed.

    If you want to try with different fruit, apple, berries, apricots, pears are an equally delicious option, or even a combination of more fruits. You can serve the peach crisp with cream, ice cream or custard, or just on its own, it's entirely up to you.

    For more deliciousness, why not try my: Gooseberry, Strawberry and Rhubarb Crumble, or Apple and Plum Crumble? They are both made with fresh seasonal fruit, and are as easy to make.

          Okay! I am trying again. My first reply failed. It has been a while since I have done this but I think you have to have your website on your gravatar. There is no link to your blog underneath your name no sorry. There is no follow option underneath your name when you Comment so that leads me to believe that you have not put your blog on your gravatar. Forgive me if I am wrong like I said it's been a while since I have done this. Please overlook the spelling errors in this message. I am teaching my Google speech to recognize the way I talk so that I can answer, faster than typing.

        Thank you! It is a good dessert when you want to have something sweet, but don't want to feel too guilty after 🙂 I've been trying to be good and not have too many sweets, but for some reasons I always end up baking something haha

      A crisp or a crumble is such a wonderful dessert, I make them quite often myself, with whatever fruit or berry happens to be in season. They are loved by everyone.
